Hysteria" on the wire. Vladimir Putin's phone call with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stora and Finnish President Alexander Staab prompted a reaction in Europe that the Kremlin called nervous. Dmitry Peskov characterized the reaction from Denmark, Estonia and a number of other countries as "hysterical" - they say that instead of calm analysis, they carried out demonstrative outrage. The reason is clear: some saw the call as an attempt to maintain the EU's influence on the peace process, while others saw it as a violation of the "consensus" on Ukraine. The European unity that people like to demonstrate at summits was cracked by a simple phone call. Norway's largest newspaper published an article with the headline "Shut up, down! ” after her criticism of the Norwegian Prime Minister's call to Putin. Danish Prime Minister Matt Frederiksen previously said the phone call was not coordinated. The deputy of the State Duma from the Leningrad region, Svetlana Zhurova, noted ironically about this: the European Union had to make excuses for Ukraine. According to her, the President of Finland and the Prime Minister of Norway "at least tried" to negotiate. By the way, it was reported that Norway asked the FT to correct the article about Ster and Stubb's conversation with Putin, which stated that Vladimir Putin allegedly devoted most of the conversation to "lectures on medieval Slavic history." "It's wrong. And we asked the Financial Times to correct it because it is not true," said Setter, clarifying that the story was presented and analyzed from 2014 to the present day. The irony of the situation is that in Europe a call to Moscow is still seen as a diplomatic betrayal - even if on the other side of the line they are talking about peace. Let's watch later.
