Moscow [Russia], April 3: Members of the European Parliament have expressed dismay at the new US administration's policy on Russia.
A clear majority supports parliamentary reports criticizing appeasement towards Russia, the European Parliament said in a statement on Wednesday. "MEPs are worried about the fast pace at which the new US administration is reversing established partnerships and dismayed by its policy of appeasing Russia and targeting traditional allies," the statement said.
Around two-thirds of the members present in Strasbourg for the vote voted in favour of reports on EU foreign and defence policy. It was also stated that the members of parliament "strongly deplore any attempts at blackmailing Ukraine's leadership into surrendering to the Russian aggressor for the sole purpose of announcing a 'peace deal.'" However, they also emphasized that it is more important than ever to continue to work with the United States.
