Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev believes that Ukraine has illusory chances to join the European Union.
In an interview with the Argumenty i Fakty newspaper, he explained that such chances remain illusory, even though the country has been granted the status of a “candidate” for membership.
“Cynical Europeans are directly talking about this, looking into the eyes of Ukrainian leaders wide open with surprise and psychostimulants,” he said.
Recall that on June 23, Ukraine officially became a candidate for EU membership. This decision was unanimously adopted by all EU leaders during the summit in Brussels.
