Zakharova commented on the possible extension of EU sanctions

“This is a jaded record. But the farce consists in the fact that everything is no longer even on the sidelines, but in public, they say that it is destructive, but, in fact, ruinous for the European Union itself, ”Tass quoted Zakharova as saying.

Earlier, RIA Novosti, citing a source in EU structures, reported that EU Permanent Representatives agreed on a six-month extension of sanctions against Russia.

Later, former Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko also said that the EU agreed to extend sanctions against Russia.
