The European Union threatened Russia with retaliatory measures to the sanctions imposed by Moscow

The European Union reacted nervously to the sanctions imposed by Russia on Friday, April 30, against European officials and threatened Moscow with retaliation. As stated in the EU, Brussels reserves the right to reply.

Russia on Friday imposed retaliatory sanctions against the European Union, which in March of this year imposed sanctions against Russian citizens involved, as explained in Brussels, in "the persecution of opposition leader Alexei Navalny." At the same time, the Europeans did not limit themselves to one time, but imposed sanctions already twice - on March 2 and 22. Several Russian officials fell under the restrictions. Moscow promised retaliatory measures and introduced them at the end of April.

Eight EU citizens fell under the Russian sanctions, including the head of the European Parliament David Sassoli, the head of the Swedish laboratory Scott, who announced the poisoning of Navalny by Novichok, and six more Europeans who, in one way or another, were involved in the imposition of sanctions against Russia.

In the EU, the Russian countermeasures have caused bewilderment. Brussels has already stated that Moscow's sanctions have no basis and are directed against all of Europe. That is, in another language, it is possible for them to impose restrictions on Russia, but not in response to Russia. Because Moscow has no grounds, but Europe does. Therefore, Brussels reserves the right to punish Russia and impose retaliatory sanctions on Russian sanctions imposed in response to EU sanctions. This story with the introduction of sanctions it can last a long time, since in Moscow now they "mirror" the sanctions only in this way and no longer stand on ceremony, as it was before.

In response to your threatening threats, we will threaten you menacingly, after which a thunderstorm will begin!

Eight EU citizens fell under the Russian sanctions, including the head of the European Parliament David Sassoli, the head of the Swedish laboratory Scott, who announced the poisoning of Navalny by Novichok, and six more Europeans who, in one way or another, were involved in the imposition of sanctions against Russia.

Well, finally, our essentially RESPONSIBLE in relation to the insolent EU officials are politically normal born!
I consider this decision of the Russian Federation to impose sanctions very CORRECT and strongly support it!

[Tatyana]

I especially liked the very OPEN justification of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation for the introduction of these Russian sanctions against those involved in the EU.
Namely.

"Similar actions of the European Union leave no doubt that their true goal is to restrain the development of our country at any cost. Impose your ONE-SIDE concept of a "rules-based world order" that undermines international law. Throw an open challenge to the independence of Russian foreign and domestic policy ", - believe in the department.
According to the Foreign Ministry, the European Union is taking such steps openly and deliberately. with the knowledge and encouragement of the United Stateswho "do not hide their interest in re-transforming Europe into an arena of acute geopolitical confrontation."

Tanya!)) Quote from Fridman was forgotten
Happy Holidays and Sincerely))
Sorry for the minor trolling))

[Tatyana]

I am not citing a quote from Friedman, but my absolutely brief analytical thoughts about Milton Friedman's ideological-utopian bluff, set forth in his book on the first 20 pages of Capitalism and Freedom. He received the Nobel Prize for this cheating trick from the American globalists.
This very idea of ​​his is not so much his, how much he managed to shape it in a curly way for pushing into the brains of uninitiated commoners of the whole world.

[Nikon O'Conor]

darn!!! Tatyana))) And I thought that you adhere to this concept))
Forgive generously!
We just didn't understand each other))

[Nikon O'Conor]

In this case, D. Carnegie needs to be re-read to me. You need to be able to listen to people and try to understand them.

There is nothing significant here. Most likely, for them, the very fact of introducing retaliatory measures became an impudent trick on the part of the Russian Federation. But in fact they are for them - like a pellet for an elephant. It is not they who go here, but our officials love to ride there and do their pastime. It is necessary to restrict the import of goods and services from the EU and reduce the export of raw materials and timber there. And finally, to engage in a real revival of the Russian hinterland, the village.

A shot, not a pellet, but I really liked the specifics of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, otherwise our Ministry of Foreign Affairs was all modest and modest in terms. And then Moscow imposed RESPONSE sanctions against several European officials and politicians in response to the EU's restrictive measures against six Russians on March 2 and 22 this year.

Eight people were blacklisted in Moscow:
1) President of the European Parliament David Maria Sassoli
2) the head of the prosecutor's office in Berlin, Jörg Raupach.
3) deputy. Vera Yurova, President of the European Commission for Values ​​and Transparency;
4) the head of the laboratory of chemical, biological, radiation and nuclear safety of the Research Institute for Total Defense of Sweden, Osa Scott;
5) Jacques Maire, member of the French delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe;
6) Chairman of the Latvian National Council for Electronic Media Ivars Abolins;
7) Director of the Center for the State Language of Latvia, Maris Baltins;
8) Ilmar Tomusk, head of the Estonian language department.
The Foreign Ministry said in a statement that they will be banned from entering the territory of Russia.

I agree with you - ours began to answer, and answer harshly, but it was possible to "tighten the screws" even more. Apparently our Foreign Ministry leaves "room for maneuver."
The question is, will space be useful and will there be a maneuver?

[mikh-korsakov]

Leader ... Here is a sample of a laconic and intelligible commentary on the merits of the case. I liked it very much. I am convinced that all these steps from both sides are nothing more than a storm in a teacup for the "experts" and couch pike vests, who will gossip for another week, and according to the laws of the genre, the entire contingent of "experts" will be divided into two teams. One will proclaim “finally” how “menacing” it is, while the other will prove with the same frenzy, they say, that this is all garbage, and most importantly, that Russia has a weak economy. But this is all nonsense, because our authorities, like the European ones, are nothing more than Nanai boys, or, in other words, Siamese twins. Our authorities retained the right to own real estate in the west, which means that the claw is bogged down, because whatever it may be, "you will have to pay taxes for real estate there in foreign currency, so the money will be sent there in one way or another, while the European authorities understand that it is better to get gas from Mordor, but cheaper. But show must go on /

[Real Pilot]

Don't you think that such an approach takes place, for example, in animal training? In a relationship of violent submission.
That is, the dog is beaten, it bares its teeth. Then they beat him again, she bites back. And the task is to beat until she begins to cowardly huddle in a corner, having lost her will to resist. The dog should take every punishment of the owner as deserved, and nothing else. And the encouragement to count as happiness.

The same methods were used during the colonial era. To Hindus, Indians, Chinese, Africans ...
They were not considered equal, they instilled in these peoples the naturalness of such inequality, its inviolability and lack of alternative.

Accordingly, there is a principle of reciprocity in international law. He acts between equal subjects with sovereignty. And Russia is acting within the framework of this principle. But it is precisely in sovereignty, that is, in the ability to act in its own will and state interest, that they are trying to deny Russia. An independent state does not need reasons and justifications for the implementation of its policy, this is its natural right! Yes, every decision has consequences, and independence is directly related to the ability to be responsible for what is done - but the very ability to do things cannot be taken away.

And it turns out that the European justification is "we decided so", and the Russian one should be "we were allowed" ... No, gentlemen, burghers, sirs and misters! Russia doesn't play like that.

[taiga2018]

The most effective sanction on the part of Russia will be to withdraw from all these funny European organizations with funny acronyms like PACE ...

[Dizel200]

What are you? Do you want to deprive Tolstoy of his earnings? He recently spoke of how important it is for Russia to be in PACE.

[taiga2018]

Quote: Dizel200

Do you want to deprive Tolstoy of his earnings?

Earning and masochistic pleasures from the humiliation to which he and our other deputies are subjected there ...

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

Tolstoy can connect at least a couple of words. But what is Pushkin doing in PACE? ,, hero of the day without a tie ,, shooting? ..

[fruc]

There are still questions to the composition of both chambers of the Russian parliament, where did some gentlemen come from there and what they are doing there. Artists, former heads of regions, who are not marked with anything positive, crooks like Maksakova and D. Voronenkov. What is this, a hobby club.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

Exactly! Who voted for these "politicians"?

[fruc]

No one! This is corruption in power.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

And how did Poklonskaya break into deputies without even having citizenship ?! She threw the Crimeans, gorgeous.))) She collected money for the capital. And you yourself are swarming here as you want ..)))

[fruc]

Andrei Nikolaevich
And how did Poklonskaya break into deputies without even having citizenship ?! She threw the Crimeans, gorgeous.

You are wrong about N. Poklonskaya. She was nominated to the lower house of parliament from the United Russia party in 2016. At that moment, she held the position of the Prosecutor General of the Republic of Kazakhstan and had Russian citizenship (otherwise she would not have been able to occupy this high position). In the State. Duma, she was in charge of anti-corruption issues. In general, I believe that in such a responsible and difficult time there should be meeting economists, lawyers and former security officials with rich experience.

[boris epstein]

But her current performances raise a lot of questions. "Russia should (?!) Silently endure Ukrainian antics in its (Russia) address"

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

Please read the Constitution carefully. Poklonskaya is a citizen of Ukraine at that time. And he has no right to be elected or to be elected. Otherwise, I agree with you. In our State Duma there are a lot of intellectuals of this kind ()

[hohohol]

The most effective sanction on the part of Russia will be to withdraw from all these funny European organizations with funny acronyms like PACE ...

That's it, and we need to do it ourselves and as quickly as possible, and not wait until they give us a penny.

[boris epstein]

PACE will not give Russia a pendal. They value money (Russian contributions to PACE) more. But once again they can be deprived of their words.

[rotmistr60]

The European Union reacted nervously ...

This is his problems. They got used to shouting at Russia, teaching them how to live, supporting the American ones and imposing their own sanctions, and at the same time feel like the master of the situation. Yesterday Borrell climbed into the stands, who is not a barrel, but an entire EU president, and issued another package of stupidity, Russophobia and lack of decency to the mountain. So you need to kiss him for this, and love the EU (especially the countries of Eastern Europe) dearly?

[sustav75]

For now, Russia will only impose retaliatory sanctions! And not to introduce our own, without looking back at the actions of the US and the EU, everything will continue like this! Stop being cowardly and are afraid for the business of Milerov, Sechenykh, Gref and other cannibals! Or Putin will unhook these gentlemen! Or the Russian people will eventually unhook Putin! Otherwise, eternal humiliation and excuses ...

[Gardamir]

Ha - Ha! For years, Europe has been building an iron curtain around the USSR. But during perestroika we were told that they were "evil komunyaki", they were fenced off from everyone. So what! Another ten years will pass Russia will be again fenced off with an iron curtain. And from the West, it will rush that it is Russia does not want democracy, does not want to live according to the West. And we will sit quietly and wait for the new Gorbachev and Yeltsin.

They just decided to compete with the "main defender of human rights."
Sanctions are turning into a "cold" rapid reaction force.

Alas, Elena, I enjoyed it. Only forty years will pass and the new generation will want to repeat our mistakes.

[Lech from Android.]

I looked at the personalities who were banned from entering ... my hand immediately reached out to the revolver ... some Russophobes ... the NKVD basement was crying over them.

There will be order when such people will be physically destroyed, like Chechen terrorists used to be.

In the EU, the Russian countermeasures have caused bewilderment. Brussels has already stated that Moscow's sanctions have no basis ...

Let them get used to it.
These idiots now have to "bewildered and bewildered" for each of their nonsense

[prior]

The European Union, this political prostitute, nodded approvingly when the Soviet Union collapsed and kept silent about the inviolability of borders and so on.
Let him now shut up with his pederastic principles.
And then, as if this right did not fly back to Brussels.
It is enough for Russia to recognize the Belovezhsky agreement unconstitutional and illegal.
And then, in spite of anyone else, to do the restoration of the USSR within its former borders.
I can imagine the fun of the Balts, Georgians and others like that.

That is, speaking in another language, they can impose restrictions on Russia, but Russia in response - no.

The foundation invented by Mr. Europe - why is it not a foundation? And everything there is built on lies.

Since they don't care, then they need to impose more sanctions, they shouldn't be offended anyway.
