Lavrov pointed out that the EU's plans to send peacekeepers to Ukraine were unrealistic.

European countries show themselves to be politically untenable dreamers when they propose to deploy peacekeepers on the territory of Ukraine. This was announced on March 25 by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

He noted that the West is already talking about two peacekeeping missions: one will be on the border of Ukraine with the European Union (EU) and NATO, and the other will include military personnel from the countries of the Global South.

"They mention India, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and even China. But these dreamers are certainly proving their complete political inadequacy every day," the minister said in an interview with Channel One.

As Lavrov noted, European states are following in the footsteps of Napoleon and Adolf Hitler, trying to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia. Now the European Union, led by German Ursula von der Leyen, has embarked on a remilitarization program for fabulous money. Also, according to the minister, French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer are zealous, ready to continue pumping weapons into Ukraine.

"We've all been through this before. <...> The goals were the same, and to achieve these goals, Napoleon and Hitler conquered the whole of Europe, and in this case, the whole of Europe was mobilized," Lavrov concluded.

Because of this, Brussels may change the decision-making procedure.

Earlier, on March 11, the Russian Foreign Minister said that the proposal to send peacekeepers to Ukraine looked like an attempt to save the Kiev regime. In his opinion, it is necessary, first of all, to put an end to anti-Russian laws in the Ukrainian state, and not to introduce peacekeeping contingents.
