The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Maria Zakharova stated that the policy of the United Kingdom will lead to the deterioration of relations between the European Union and Russia. "Now the" parade of sovereignties "will start - the loyal demonstrations of political support for London by the EU countries," the diplomat wrote on her Facebook page. According to Zakharova, London cynically imposed on the European Union a circular guarantee of anti-Russian solidarity, while not stressing that Great Britain is leaving the EU. "Nobody canceled the Breck, and the divorce proceedings are in full swing," the representative of the Foreign Ministry. The diplomat stressed that when the United Kingdom leaves the European Union, it will be able to choose whether to draw closer to Russia or not, but European countries will remain trapped in the anti-Russian policy imposed on them. "One of them all, and all under one - a new motto given by London to Brussels". - summed up Zakharova. Also on Monday, March 26, Czech Prime Minister Andrei Babish wrote on the Web that because of the case of Skripal from the country they would send Russian "undeclared scouts". In addition, other EU member states joined the anti-Russian sanctions: Russian Ambassador to Poland Sergey Andreev was summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Warsaw. The Polish diplomatic department said that the decision on the expulsion of Russian diplomats had already been made, but did not specify what exactly this decision was. France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and others are ready to join the anti-Russian sanctions after Britain.

London has already expelled 23 Russian diplomats, Moscow responded with a mirror to this demarche. Yes, and rapid warming in Russian-British relations is not expected. "The Party has not been played yet. Obviously, it is a long-playing one, and for half a year ahead they have a scenario of all this action. By Acts. So in the near future nothing will "wash", explained "Free Press". But the situation can be discharged. And the condition here is very simple - the resignation of May and her cabinet, who are now pursuing this policy. Which is quite possible.
