“In the European Union, instead of helping to end the conflict, they do not hide their desire to prolong the hostilities as much as possible, despite the casualties and destruction, to ensure “victory on the battlefield”, to weaken our country with the help of illegitimate unilateral restrictions,” she said.

The diplomat focused on the particular cynicism of the EU's position, taking into account the pumping of the Kyiv regime with deadly weapons in violation of not only international, but also its own rules for controlling the export of military technology and equipment.

The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, earlier threatened Russia with new sanctions if referendums were held in the Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics, as well as in the liberated territories of the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions, on the issue of joining Russia.

He also added that the EU will continue to provide military support to Ukraine.
