Russia’s position on the entry of Ukraine to the European Union has changed. Now she is similar to the position of Ukraine’s entry into NATO, said the First Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation at the UN Dmitry Polyansky.
“Without demilitarization and denazification of the world in Ukraine,” said Polyansky, Kommersant reports.
Polyansky said that Moscow now does not see diplomatic options for solving the situation in Ukraine.
The publication recalls that after negotiations in Istanbul on March 29, the head of the Russian delegation Vladimir Medinsky stated that Russia was not against Ukraine’s entry into the EU.
On May 9, Ukraine transferred the EU second, the last part of the questionnaire questionnaire, which must be filled out to obtain the status of a candidate for membership. The head of the European Commission Ursula von der Layen said that Ukraine can be examined by Ukraine for joining this summer.
