European Council’s decision to begin EU accession talks with Ukraine, Moldova could ‘destabilize’ bloc, Kremlin spokesman says
ISTANBUL
The Kremlin on Friday said that the European Council’s decisions to begin EU accession negotiations with Ukraine and Moldova, and to grant candidate status to Georgia is an attempt to “annoy Russia.”
Such a move is “largely based on the desire to annoy Russia even more and antagonize these countries toward Russia,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters in a press briefing in Moscow.
Peskov described the decision to start EU accession talks with Ukraine and Moldova as an “absolutely politicized decision,” saying that this move could potentially “destabilize” the EU.
“The EU has always had fairly strict criteria for entry, and at the moment it is obvious that neither Ukraine nor Moldova meet these criteria. The EU is already going through not the best times in its history in terms of the functioning of this union, and from an economic point of view,” Peskov also said.
He added that Moscow is closely watching developments in this regard.
On Thursday, the European Council paved the way for the expansion of the 27-member bloc by announcing the start of accession talks with Ukraine and Moldova, as well as granting candidate status to Georgia.
How can the response be put diplomatically?
How about:
“Hey piss-cough: fuck off, eat shit and die.”
That will do.
“Peskov described the decision to start EU accession talks with Ukraine and Moldova as an “absolutely politicized decision,” saying that this move could potentially “destabilize” the EU.”
If admitting Ukraine and Moldova would destabilize the EU, russia would be celebrating, and not be whining about getting annoyed. Poor paranoid bastards are scared to death of the EU, because every country that joined the EU from under mafia land’s jackboot, have seen a huge rise in the standard of living, and GDP.
pisscough looks like a paedophile, looking for a victim, but too stupid to find one.
He would look even better after a Ukrainian fist rearranges his face.
“Kremlin says EU decision on Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia attempt to ‘annoy Russia’”
Yeah!
It is.
What’s yur point?
Poor moskovia.
I thought they were so strong, so brave, so powerful, an economic powerhouse, the leader of Asia in economic growth etc.
Why do they feel threatened by the EU?
They wouldn’t be lying would they?
