Russia has shown disinterest in restoring relations with the EU countries. The head of EU diplomacy Josep Borrell reported on this on Tuesday, February 9, at a meeting of the European Parliament, RIA Novosti reports.
On February 7, Borrell announced the separation of Russia from the European Union. He explained that he came to this conclusion after a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and “a message from the Russian authorities during this visit.” In his opinion, Moscow does not want to use the opportunity for a more constructive dialogue.
The Russian Foreign Ministry was surprised by this statement, noting that Borrell’s assessment of the results of his visit to Moscow contrasts with his own words said in Russia.
