According to the report, the Prime Minister of Estonia said: “The coordination of each package of sanctions against Russia is a complex process in which all participants in the European Union are included. The approval of new sanctions takes weeks, months. Nevertheless, Russians allow themselves to joke on the Internet on every new package of sanctions, frankly mocking our work. I really ask them to take this seriously and show at least some respect. ”
This news amused the State Duma deputy and ex-champion of the world on boxing Nikolai Valuev, who in his own in his social networks Kallas thanked that she "brings glimpses of the Baltic Sun into the gray spring St. Petersburg everyday life." The statement of the Estonian policy was told "MK in Bryansk","Bryansk news","Mriya" Newsland, AFTERSHOCK, "YaPlakal"And other resources.
