The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs pointed out the attempts of the European Union to become a military organization. This statement was made by the deputy head of the department Alexander Grushko. "The European Union wants to transform itself into a full-fledged military organization with its own military potential, designed to prepare for a conflict with Russia. What could be Russia's attitude towards Ukraine's participation in this project, whether it is membership in the European Union or NATO? - said Grushko in a conversation with RIA Novosti.
