Putin's visit to Austria was a cold shower for Ukraine
The visit of the President of the Russian Federation to the wedding of Austrian Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl, which became known in advance and officially, indicates that the Russian leader has regained his position in the West. Ukrainian diplomat Vasily Filipchuk stated this on the NewsOne TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to him, if previously European politicians adhered to general anti-Russian behavior and were afraid to publicly “embrace” Putin, now this period has passed.
“In principle, such invitations, if they occur, are kept behind closed doors and are not made public. The fact that they were discovered, that they were given publicity, indicates that the period when Putin was in the status of a person, he shook hands, but they gave him a hand, looking left and right, who was taking the photograph, and how it would be interpreted, Now this period has already passed. That is, they are not shy about inviting people, they are not shy about being photographed, they are not shy about accepting such royal gifts. This is serious, this is an indicator,” said Filipchuk.
Earlier, the head of the Austrian Foreign Ministry said that the sanctions imposed by the European Union against Russia did not have the desired impact on the Russian economy.
