The Foreign Ministry of Ukraine considers the PACE resolution to be an unacceptable concession to the Russian Federation, which the organization has made against the background of pressure and financial blackmail.
The ministry considers this resolution to be evidence of a deviation from the declared standards, principles and values of the Council of Europe.
“Unfortunately, this happened as a result of blatant connivance of a number of countries whose leadership, on the one hand, is focused on the necessity to stop the Russian aggression against Ukraine, and, on the other hand, encourages the aggressor by making concessions to it”, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said in his comment .
It is noted that the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has lost its authority, “and the organization can no longer play its designated role.”
ArseniiYatseniuk has already critisized this resolution: “If the Kremlin returns unpunished, then the values are leaving this forum”, he noted.
And the former president of the country, Petro Poroshenko called the incident “the first serious diplomatic blow over the past five years.”
Earlier, The Journalist reported that the Netherlands, Switzerland, France, Germany actively support Russia’s return to PACE.
