RUSSIA

Kremlin clarifies Lavrov's break up with the EU comments:

  • Peskov noted that Russia will not initiate a break up in the relations with the European Union.
  • Instead, Moscow wants to develop relations with Brussels
  • "media have started advertising this headline without a context. This is a big mistake that changes the whole point."
  • "The point is that we do not want this - we want to develop relations with the European Union, but if the European Union follows this path, then yes - we will be ready. One needs to be prepared for the worst to happen" - Pravda
