Russia's Zakharova says the EU's 'starting position' matters more than who negotiates for it, and accuses Brussels of seeking to militarise the Arctic
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday that the identity of a European negotiator on Ukraine was not the key issue and that EU leaders were voicing demands 'detached from reality'. She also said the EU's new Arctic strategy aims at 'further militarization' of the region. The European Commission says its strategy is about security, climate and Arctic communities.
