According to him, these two countries in 2008 refused to Ukraine and Georgia in the NATO Membership Action Plan (MAP).
“After that there is a situation with the occupied Crimea.
Should Germany and France be held responsible for this?
I think we should, ”RIA Novosti quotes Danilov.
He noted that in such a situation it is not enough to just be “worried”.
Earlier, the head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Dmitry Kuleba said that Kiev is preparing to "oust" Russia from Crimea.
According to him, for this it is necessary to make the Crimean issue "the number one topic" of the international agenda and create a mechanism of pressure on Moscow.
Russian leader Vladimir Putin has repeatedly stressed that this issue is closed.
He noted that the referendum on the peninsula was held in strict accordance with international law.
Crimea became a Russian region after a referendum held there in March 2014, in which most residents voted in favor of reunification with Russia.
