The EU does not plan to change the format of relations with Russia as long as the war in Ukraine continues, EU High Representative Josep Borrell said this in an interview with Euractiv.
When asked about the possibility of resetting relations with Russia in the event of a peace agreement, Borrell said: "I do not see a peace agreement with Putin's Russia in the near future."
"In the distant future, in the post-war environment, there may be some changes in relations with Russia, but the fact remains that the war is likely to continue, and it is unlikely that business as usual will be conducted under these circumstances," Borrell said.
Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that Russia and the EU countries can find a solution to the problems in relations, but European leaders lack the confidence and courage to protect their national interests.
