Ukraine has already been attacked, so the European Union (EU) should start discussing sanctions against Moscow. About it declared Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis, Delfi reports.
“Ukraine has already been attacked, so we need to talk about sanctions now, without waiting for a military attack,” the minister said.
Landsbergis believes that Europe should not wait for the invasion of Russian troops, and possible retaliatory measures can be envisaged already now.
