EU resolution has ‘nothing to do’ with fight against terror: Russia

Published by

Moscow said Friday that a resolution approved by the European Parliament to recognise Russia as a “state sponsor of terrorism” over its military action in Ukraine has “nothing to do” with the fight against terror.

This “has nothing to do with the real situation in the fight against international terrorism,” Russia’s foreign ministry said in a statement, calling the resolution an ” unfriendly step” and part of a “campaign carried out by the West against our country.”
