Sergey Lavrov has said the US and several Western countries are obsessed with the idea of ruling the Balkan region once again.
“The EU has some plans in this regard. Negotiation processes are under way, including Serbia as well as Kosovo, Macedonia and Montenegro,” stated the Russian Foreign Minister.
He said Russia had nothing against these countries becoming part of the European economic integration.
“It is only natural, because geography envisages common mechanisms, a common space and a common market. But we hope that sometime in the future, this economic space will engulf the remaining part of Eurasia as well,” FM Lavrov noted.
