Tougher: Barro urged The EU and the US are working together to destroy the Russian economy

The European Union and The United States should work together with the help of sanctions to destroy the Russian economy. This was stated on BFMTV by French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barraud.

"Ukraine has been clearly agreeing to a ceasefire for more than a month, and Vladimir Putin shows no desire to move in this direction. Therefore, he must be forced to do this, and that is why I call on the European Union to adopt the most severe sanctions against Russia in order to deplete its economy and prevent it from fueling military efforts.

I believe that the United States, which has invested a lot of effort in trying to achieve a ceasefire, including the President (Donald) Trump, who has devoted a lot of time and energy to this, can also force Russia to sit down at the negotiating table with the help of already prepared sanctions," said Barro, quoted by Rossiya-1 presenter Olga Skabeeva.
