“Europe has reached such a state that there is nowhere to go further, in terms of relations with Russia. Moreover, there were no real grounds for worsening relations. Europe was led to pressure by the United States and, as a result, suffered enormous losses after the introduction of our retaliatory sanctions. Turnover decreased, tourist flow decreased. I think that Europeans understand that further confrontation with Russia is not in their interests, ”said Jabarov.
The senator expressed the hope that "insight will come not only in France, but also in other representatives of Old Europe."
“I mean Germany, Italy, Switzerland. The fact is that the so-called “young Europeans” are setting the tone in the EU now. I take Poland there, the Baltic countries, which are struggling to use Russophobic policies and everywhere see the “hand of Russia”, everywhere require sanctions. This does not give Europe anything good, and the Europeans themselves began to get tired of it, ”he concluded.
Earlier, the ex-Foreign Minister of France said that Paris needs to establish relations with Moscow before the US president does in case of his re-election as head of state, otherwise the interests of Europe will not be taken into account.
