The Polish Prime Minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, stated that there is a split in the EU due to the situation in Ukraine. The split can lead to an internal explosion. «There are people in the EU who are trying to convince the politicians and the public that the conflict in Ukraine can be ended, so everything can go back to business as usual” — he explained — «The threat of an internal explosion does exist. Thus, it is important to maintain a dialogue between us, in order to find compromises and a common denominator» — the newspaper ’Figaro’ quoted Mateusz Morawiecki. Earlier, the former Foreign Minister of Finland, Erkki Tuomioja, stated that the idea of Vladimir Zelensky to stop issuing visas to the Russian citizens could cause a split in the EU.

The team will arrive at the NPP during this week. The inspectors will assess the physical damage of the station, and determine the operability of the security systems of the facility.

6 Germany

The head of the German Foreign Ministry, Annalena Berbock, has addressed the EU countries with a proposal to introduce a temporary ban on the issuance of multi-year visas to the Russian citizens.

The visa issue will be one of the key topics for the discussions at the informal meeting of the Foreign Ministers of the EU countries, which will be held from 30th till 31st of August, in the Czech Republic. It is assumed that France and Germany will oppose the ban. The Czech Republic, the Netherlands and a number of other states will likely support the initiative. The Russian presidential spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, stated that Kremlin will respond to such restrictions.
