LAVROV: EU BUILDING SECURITY FRAMEWORK AGAINST RUSSIA

MOSCOW, JUNE 16 /SRNA – RIA Novosti/ - The EU is building a security framework against Russia, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.

“According to our information, Great Britain is promoting the idea of creating a separate military alliance that would include the most ardent Russophobes within the current EU, with the participation of London and Ukraine,” Lavrov said after talks with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan.

Lavrov added that everything is still at the stage of deliberations, discussions, and ideas, but that behind it all lies an obvious truth: the EU is building a security framework against the Russian Federation.
