The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, said that Russia will lose

the war

against Ukraine.

He said this before the meeting of the ministers of foreign affairs of the EU countries, "European Truth" writes.

"The socio-economic consequences of the war continue all over the world. Russia is becoming more and more isolated, we have seen this in the UN in recent days. Morally, politically, even militarily, Russia is losing this war. We must continue to support Ukraine," Borrell said. .

He also expressed hope that the ministers will decide on the creation of a new training mission for the Ukrainian military on Monday.

According to Borrell, the ministers will also discuss possible sanctions against Iran, which supplies Russia with military drones for attacks on Ukraine.

"We will consider concrete evidence of Iran's involvement, which Tehran strongly denies. Ukrainian Minister Dmytro Kuleba will take part in the meeting. But today's sanctions will be related to repression against protesters," he added.

We will remind you that on October 8, the European Union finally approved the eighth package

of sanctions

against Russia.

The sanctions package includes a ban on the import of Russian products worth seven billion euros and a cap on oil prices.

Meanwhile, Russia is still trying to justify the effect of sanctions and isolation by "developing its own economy and establishing international relations."

Over time, it becomes more difficult even for propaganda media to

hide the true

consequences of sanctions for the Russian Federation.

Although Kremlin propaganda still tries to construct a narrative about "Russia as a country of great opportunities", sanctions limit choices not only in everyday life, but also in what remains to be written about.
