EU a ‘human rights exclusion zone’ – senior Russian official

Sergey Shoigu's recent comments about the EU being a 'human rights exclusion zone' highlight ongoing tensions between Russia and the EU regarding travel and human rights. This sentiment is echoed in the broader context of EU financial support for Ukraine, as European Commissioner Dombrovskis has suggested tapping into Russian assets to fund Kiev. Such measures indicate a complex interplay of geopolitical strategies, where the EU's financial decisions are scrutinized by Russian officials, further complicating the relationship between the two entities.
