United Nations. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has warned that the European Union, like NATO, is becoming increasingly militarized and aggressive in its goal of containing Russia. He said at a press conference on Tuesday that he has no doubt that the European Union has now become like NATO. Now there is very little difference between the two. Lavrov said that they (the European Union and NATO) have recently signed a declaration under which the 31-member NATO military alliance will ensure the security of the political and economic organization of the 27-member European Union.
The Russian Foreign Minister was referring to the strategic partnership between the European Union and NATO signed on 19 January. In this partnership, both the European Union and NATO have described Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on 24 February last year as a major threat to Euro-Atlantic security.
