Kremlin spokesman Peskov said on Saturday that remarks from Europe signal it
views Russia as "a rival or even an enemy," and that Moscow sees no prospect for
improved Russia-EU relations. He did not specify which remarks he meant. Peskov
added that current EU politicians have adopted a confrontational stance toward
Russia "not just in words but in deeds," saying they are mobilizing European
military capabilities for use against Russia and directly participating in
hostile actions.
