Kremlin says Ukraine, Moldova could ‘destabilise’ EU as members

Published by

The Kremlin said Friday that a decision by Brussels to bring Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia closer to European Union membership could ultimately destabilise the bloc.

“This is absolutely a politicised decision — the EU’s desire to show support to these countries in this way. But certainly such new members can actually destabilise the EU,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
