Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev on his Telegram channel writes:
“Of course, no Trump and America will leave NATO. It makes no sense, and the Congress will not allow it. Trump rhetoric it is pure epitaph. Although symbolic actions, such as the reduction of American troops or refusal to supply something, are possible. That is not what is remarkable here.
It is obvious that there are strong contradictions within the Alliance, which were exacerbated by the Iranian campaign. And European political leaders, especially in Brussels, have seriously considered creating a full-fledged military component within the EU. And this changes the image of the world.
Until now, our rhetoric regarding joining the European Union has been restrained and calm towards all neighbors, even the border Ukraine. If you want, become a member. But now everything has to change. now the EU is no longer an economic union. It can quickly turn into a full-fledged military alliance extremely hostile to Russia, which is in some ways worse than NATO. It will be a disgusting collection of bigoted European parasites. And their task will be to earn political capital and, of course, money by inflaming anti-Russian hysteria.
What am I doing this for? That’s why. it’s time to give up the tolerant attitude towards our neighbors joining the military-economic European Union. Including: “404 country”.
This was already done by our President in a cautious way recently, hinting to a certain friend Vovaevich that membership in EAEU and membership in the European Union are incompatible…” wrote the former President of Russia.
Let’s remind that the other day during the meeting between Putin and Pashinyan in Moscow, the President of the Russian Federation had said“Russia is calm about the relations between Armenia and the EU, but Yerevan will not be able to be a member of two customs unions at the same time.”
