“Europe is digging trenches for the front” - Lavrov
In recent years, the European continent has plunged into a crisis of confidence unlike any other.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated this while speaking at the opening of a conference on relations between Russia and the European Union, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The situation remains very alarming. Our common European continent is experiencing an unprecedented crisis of confidence; dividing lines are being re-erected in Europe, moving east and deepening. Like trenches at the front, essentially.
The prospects for the unification agenda are very limited, the role of pan-European organizations is being devalued, I mean primarily the OSCE and the Council of Europe. The mechanisms of structured cooperation, structured contacts even between the European Union and NATO with the Russian Federation have been emasculated,” Lavrov said.
