Europe needs to strengthen its defense against Russia, and not negotiate with it on a new security architecture, - European Commissioner Kovilius.
Andrias Kovilius said in an interview that NATO and the European Union do not threaten Russia, and reducing the alliance's presence could allow Moscow to threaten the Baltic states, Poland, Finland and Sweden.
Kovilius also sees no sign of Putin's readiness for a peace agreement and called his expectations from the talks in Abu Dhabi "rather limited."
