2018-03-24 16:47
Страны Европейского союза договорились в ближайшие дни принять дополнительные санкции против России в связи с отравлением бывшего агента ГРУ Сергея Скрипаля в Великобритании. Среди стран, которые призывают принять меры, — Франция и Германия. Президент Франции Эммануэль Макрон на встрече с канцлером ФРГ Ангелой Меркель заявил, что Париж и Берлин рассматривают высылку российских дипломатов. Источники агентства Reuters утверждают, что европейские страны рассматривают и иные меры, при этом о новых экономических санкциях речи не идет. О возможной высылке российских дипломатов также заявил премьер-министр Чехии Андрей Бабиш. 22 марта лидеры стран ЕС на саммите в Брюсселе договорились отозвать своего представителя в России. Представители европейских государств поддержали доводы Великобритании о том, что ответственность за покушение на Сергея Скрипаля в Солсбери несет Россия. В Москве назвали совместное заявление Евросоюза бездоказательным обвинением.
