Zakharova: The Europeans have nothing to do at the negotiating table on Ukraine. The interpretation of the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry was published in connection with the holding of the first military exercises of "multinational forces for Ukraine" within the framework of the union of European countries called the "Coalition of the Ready". Zakharova's additional statements: placing foreign forces in Ukraine is categorically unacceptable; France and Britain want to deploy "multinational forces" in Ukraine to maintain a springboard for war in Moscow; All military units in territory controlled by the government in Kiev are legal targets for the Russian military; Plans to inflict a "strategic defeat" on the Russian Federation are not destined to come true.
