The EU noted that the Russian Federation’s list of “unfriendly countries” contradicts the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations of 1961.
The European Union has condemned the Russian Federation’s decision to add Greece, Denmark, Croatia, Slovakia and Slovenia to the list of so-called “unfriendly countries”. This is what the head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borrell, said.
Russia is urged to withdraw such lists, as it further complicates relations and could lead to escalation.
In addition, the list of “unfriendly countries” of the Russian Federation contradicts the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations of 1961.
“The EU calls on Russia to reconsider its decision and fully comply with the Vienna Convention. The EU continues to call on Russia to immediately stop the aggression against Ukraine and all other violations of international law, including violating its own international obligations,” Borrell said.
Earlier the Russian Federation expanded the list of “unfriendly countries”
Recall that in early March, the Russian government approved a list of “unfriendly states.” These include EU countries, Australia, Albania, Andorra, Great Britain, Iceland, Canada, Liechtenstein, Micronesia, Monaco, New Zealand, Norway, Republic of Korea, San Marino, North Macedonia, Singapore, USA, Taiwan, Ukraine, Montenegro, Switzerland and Japan.
