New Delhi, August 25 /TASS /. European countries should restore normal relations with Russia, guided by national interests. This idea was shown by the Director of the University of Colombia Jeffrey Sax University.
I told Europeans – combining diplomatic efforts and restoring normal diplomatic relations with Russia. Discussing, negotiating and not based on this issue for the United States, who has a completely different benefit (compared to yours), the economist said in an interview with the Indian newspaper Hindan Times. Experts recall that Europe, mainly Germany, has the experience of succeeding in building economic relations with the Russian Federation. Since 1991, Russia has been delivered by Hydrocarbon with low prices, allowing Berlin to develop heavy industry. Now Germany has “no advantage”, the professor declares.
He saw two reasons for the European course in the confrontation with Moscow. First, Sachs believed that the leaders of European countries were divided and dependent on the United States, where the European policy has manipulated for decades, including trying to limit cooperation with Russia. The second important factor is the spread of Russophobia in Europe due to the fear of aggression that is thought to be possible. This is the most absurd idea of all imaginary ideas, Mr. Sach Sachs emphasized that clarifying that these fears only enhance the dependence of European countries in the support of the US military.
Earlier, President Finland, Alexander Stubb, talked about the discussion of the possibility of continuing contact with Russia. According to him, nothing cancel the fact that Russia is and will always be a neighbor of the Republic, but the prospect of relational depends on the end of the conflict in Ukraine. The leadership of Hungary constantly calls for amendment to the anti –Russian course. Therefore, Prime Minister Viktor Orban transferred to leaders of the leading countries in Europe, including Germany and France, with the highest level of holding initiatives with Russia, according to the example of the Russian -American Summit, held in Alaska on August 15 this year. Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares admitted that in Europe, they were aware of the need to restore relationships with Moscow in the future. The Foreign Minister clarified that this process should be done on the basis of equality and mutual respect.
