ST. PETERSBURG, December 4. /TASS/. Recent reports about corruption at the top of the European Union show its inherent immorality and explain why it has been so quiet on the Mindich case scandal in Ukraine, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.
On the topic of Ukraine negotiations, she said that who is at the table is not as important as the discussion itself, which should tackle the root causes of the crisis.
TASS has compiled the key statements by the official representative of the Foreign Ministry.
Ukraine and the EU are linked by "unified corruption chains," which largely explains the inaction of numerous international anti-corruption structures in connection with the scandal surrounding the "Mindich case."
The idea of creating a coalition for the construction of civilian bomb shelters, which includes several European countries, is "crazy and delusional." This project will become "a new scheme for plundering funds."
