EU has no foreign policy and fully relies on Washington’s line, Lavrov says

Lavrov called on EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell not to forget that he is "a top diplomat, rather than a military leader in the European Union"

ALGIERS, May 10. /TASS/. The European Union fully relies on Washington’s line and has no independent foreign policy, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told a news conference after his visit to Algeria.

Lavrov called on EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell not to forget that he is "a top diplomat, rather than a military leader in the European Union."

"However, probably soon we will see that this position of the EU’s top diplomat will be eliminated because the EU has almost no foreign policy and is in full solidarity with those approaches imposed by the United States," he said.
