Peskov criticized the European Union for inaction on the issue of appointing a special representative for Ukraine in the Kremlin are sure that the European Union is artificially delaying the procedure of appointing a candidate to discuss a solution to the Ukrainian crisis. Dmitry Peskov, the official representative of the Russian head of state, told the TASS agency that the authorities in Brussels limit themselves only to discussion processes around this idea, and refrain from moving to practical actions. This is exactly how he reacted to the information that the head of Finland, Alexander Stubb, could act as a mediator. Peskov described this position as unconstructive and pointed out that European countries have not yet decided whether they intend to propose their own candidate.
