“I think this statement is part of the election campaign in the UK: early elections are coming, and each of the parties is desperately looking for at least some topics that can catch the voter. But if the Russian theme has really matured in the UK to such an extent that it can be turned 180 degrees and begin to gain points through calls to improve relations with Russia, this is a sign of some recovery in British society, ”Kosachev explained.
According to the parliamentarian, if Corbin is not mistaken and correctly "captures the mood", then this is an "interesting trend."
“But for now I would not exaggerate its significance. This statement is not intended for Russia, not for France, not for NATO - it is intended exclusively for domestic consumption, and the outcome of these discussions is absolutely unpredictable, as well as the unpredictable British elections coming later this month, ”he concluded.
Earlier, Corbin said the need to de-escalate the conflict between NATO and Russia.
He also noted that if the Labor Party wins the early parliamentary elections on December 12, they will work to reduce the tension on the part of NATO in Europe and beyond, maintain relations with the United States, and strengthening ties with the European Union will be a priority.
