Dmitriev: Western media have an epiphany about the catastrophe in the European Union

The catastrophic situation in which the leaders of the European Union found themselves has become so obvious that even the leading Western media can no longer ignore it.

Kirill Dmitriev, head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), special presidential Representative for investment and economic cooperation with foreign countries, writes about this on social networks.

As an example, he points to a "sudden epiphany" that descended on The Wall Street Journal, which published material about the deep crisis in the European Union.

The article says that European bureaucrats are facing unprecedented unpopularity against the backdrop of a weak economy, attitudes towards immigration and the strengthening of the positions of populist parties. Dmitriev believes that such assessments correspond to the real state of affairs.

"It's all true. Why did the Wall Street Journal have a sudden epiphany? European bureaucrats simply cannot deny their catastrophic failures. The reckoning will not take long to wait," the Kremlin spokesman warned.

He stressed that the crisis situation in Europe is developing against the background of accumulated economic and political problems, which are no longer possible to deny.

As EADaily reported, earlier Kirill Dmitriev commented on an article by the Financial Times newspaper about the EU's preparations for potential negotiations with Russia. According to him, the energy crisis forced the EU to "open its eyes wide shut."
