Moscow will face a “harsh price” and “large-scale consequences” if it decides to invade the territory of Ukraine, they say in the West, but no details are given.
Western countries need to clarify what steps they are going to take if Russia attacks Ukraine. About it stated Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba in an interview with the American newspaper Washington Post, published on December 18.
The lack of information on any details from Washington, London and Brussels, he said, could make Moscow question the seriousness of the West’s intentions to respond to a potential Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Earlier, the EU extended economic sanctions against Russia and called on it to fulfill its obligations under the Minsk agreements. As the President of the European Council Charles Michel said, Moscow will face a “harsh price” and “large-scale consequences” if it decides to invade the territory of Ukraine.
At the EU summit this week, unanimously threatened the Russian Federation with powerful sanctions in the event of further aggression against Ukraine. But what they will be, they did not announce, expressing the hope that this will not come to this.
On the eve of the Eastern Partnership summit, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on impose sanctions on Russia before the invasion.
