According to Logvinov, while the UN Security Council in New York was discussing the formation of a multipolar world, Brussels, contrary to the objective processes taking place today in the international arena, proclaimed a policy of "planned construction of unipolarity."

"If yesterday the division into "us" and "them" was carried out on the basis of unconditional support for the Western course in Ukraine, now another criterion for "professional suitability" is the policy towards China," he said.

Earlier, Politico columnist Jacopo Barigazzi said that the European Union is trying to improve relations with several countries in order to win them over to its side.

Euractiv, citing an internal EU document, reported that the European Union is currently developing measures aimed at strengthening relations with Brazil, Chile, Nigeria and Kazakhstan against the backdrop of confrontation with Russia and China.
