British media are concerned about the emerging open split in the EU in connection with the position on anti-Russian sanctions
34
British newspaper The Daily Telegraph it comes out with material telling that the European Union is closer than ever to an open internal confrontation, and this confrontation is associated with the sanctions regime against Russia and retaliatory sanctions from the Russian Federation. The editor-in-chief of the economic information of the publication writes that the split arises due to the fact that some states do not experience any economic difficulties due to the Russian response to sanctions, but others lose huge funds and face large-scale internal protest.
The Daily Telegraph recalls that in June the EU’s anti-Russian sanctions expire, and to extend them, Brussels will have to do something extraordinary with respect to the Greek state, whose prime minister in Moscow declared Greece’s full independence despite its status as a member of the European Union and the European “corporate ethics”. The British newspaper reports that it is the Greek precedent of warming relations with Russia that could be a starting point for other EU countries (Hungary, Cyprus, Italy, the Czech Republic, Slovakia) who want to abandon anti-Russian sanctions and get the opportunity to re-enter the vast Russian market.
Message The Daily Telegraph is such that if Brussels “misses” Greece (and, in fact, does not suppress the activity of Alexis Tsipras), then the European Union will face a real split in the summer of the 2015 of the year. Is this a warning to the European Union or a team to suppress Athens (or both)?
