Medvedev called for a change in attitude towards Ukraine's accession to the European Union

It is time for Russia to change its "tolerant attitude" towards the intention of its neighboring countries, including Ukraine, to become members of the European Union (EU). On April 3, Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, made such a proposal.

The politician noted that serious contradictions are brewing within NATO, as a result of which Brussels is seriously considering the creation of a full-fledged military component in the EU. According to him, such an idea can change the picture of the world, because then the European Union will cease to be an "economic union" and turn into a military alliance hostile to Russia.

"What am I getting at? But here's the thing: it's time to abandon the tolerant attitude towards joining the military-economic European Union of our neighbors. Including country 404," Medvedev wrote on his Facebook channel.

Medvedev also expressed doubts about the withdrawal of the United States and NATO. According to him, the American congressmen will not allow the country to do this, as there is no reason for it.
