“In my opinion, Borrell is trying to put a good face on a bad game.
It is absolutely obvious that the expulsion of foreign diplomats by our country was motivated by their participation in illegal actions.
We regard this kind of position and their activities as a direct attempt to interfere in our internal affairs, this does not correspond to normal diplomatic relations, normal diplomatic practice ... The topic of "Russian aggression", the topic of the fact that Russia cannot be a country with which it is worth negotiating , to which you need to listen, is always at the top of the information agenda in Europe, ”explained Danyuk.
According to him, "we need to constantly warm up this topic."
“In this case, it is a convenient tool when you recall the cases of two months ago, declare that Russia has once again demonstrated“ aggression ”, and the mainstream media within Europe, which are connected with the Brussels bureaucracy, begin to circulate these statements.
And besides, it seems to me that this statement by Borrell may indicate that soon we will have a new round of sanctions on the part of both Europe and the United States.
But, in my opinion, this kind of statements and this kind of rhetoric of the high representative of the EU speak only of their weakness.
Because they cannot bring any real arguments in defense of their position, "the interlocutor of RT concluded.
Earlier, the head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, commented on Russia's decision to expel diplomats from Germany, Poland and Sweden in February.
He noted that this "is no longer humiliation, but a manifestation of aggression."
According to Borrell, "such things are not done in diplomatic relations."
On February 5, the Russian Foreign Ministry declared the employees of the embassies of Sweden, Poland and Germany persona non grata for their participation in illegal actions on 23 January.
The Russian ministry stressed that such actions on their part are unacceptable and do not correspond to their diplomatic status.
