The Russian Foreign Ministry calls on the European Union to carefully re-read UN Security Council Resolution 2202 from 2015, which approved the package of measures of the Minsk agreement and welcomed the proclamation of the leaders of the “Normandy figure” (p. the presidents of France, Russia and the chancellor of Germany), but also to look objectively at the situation in Ukraine, said its official spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.
According to a statement posted on the Russian Foreign Ministry’s website tonight, Zakharova also called on the EU “to refrain from taking steps and statements that undermine the process of peaceful political settlement of this internal Ukrainian conflict mediated by Russia, Germany and France.” and the OSCE “and argued that the EU was” politically biased “in supporting the Kiev government and turning a blind eye to its reluctance to implement the” Minsk Grid “in violating the country ».
The Russian representative described the “false position” and “alteration of the Minsk agreements” that was adopted at the last EU-Ukraine summit on October 12 in Kiev as “Russia is not a mediator, but a party to the conflict” and claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decree on humanitarian aid and trade facilitation with the Ukrainian region of Donbass “in no way contradicts the Minsk agreements, contrary to the actions of the Ukrainian authorities and the EU “which, instead of humanitarian aid, intends to send direct military support to the Kiev government.”
Earlier, Russia’s foreign intelligence service had denied the allegations in a statement issued Friday stating “Similar, baseless allegations concerning Russia’s foreign intelligence service have been made more than once. on Russian state television.
“All of this is a malicious propaganda by the US State Department. The US State Department feeds on this fake material, these lies and its allies and the heads of the media and the US political science centers, in order to reproduce and propagate this lie and around this issue they have created quite a large bubble “, said the high-ranking representative of the Russian leadership.
“We must, of course, maintain our composure and strengthen our country’s defense capability,” Naryshkin told Russia-1 television, claiming that “An attempt will be made to push the Kiev government with new force to ignite the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine.”
