MOSCOW:  A deplorable fate awaits Europe if it does not halt its Russophobic hysteria, as common European security without the involvement of Russia and Belarus is nothing more than a utopia, Federation Council Speaker Valentina Matviyenko stated in an interview with the Belarus-1 TV channel.

"Their fate is indeed grim. If they do not come to their senses and immediately stop this Russophobic and militaristic hysteria, they will face dire consequences. It is impossible to discuss security for Europe, regardless of how many billions they allocate. The idea of common European security without the participation of Russia and Belarus is a fantasy. Everyone understands this," she asserted.

Matviyenko emphasized that Russia has consistently urged Europe to convene at the negotiating table to establish a security framework that is common and indivisible. "Security should be equitable for all states, not just a select few. We need to develop mechanisms to achieve this. In the realm of security, they are essentially complete vassals," she highlighted.

She also pointed out the growing divide within European society. "Look at the fissures that have developed within the European Union. Some express their concerns openly, while others prefer to remain silent, but there is a palpable level of disagreement regarding the new form of European Union dictatorship. It is indeed a dictatorship. You cannot voice your opinion, and even if you do, it often goes unacknowledged. Instead of focusing on their economy and the well-being of their citizens, they have engaged in warmongering. They boldly announced to the world: ‘We will allocate 800 billion euros for armaments to support Ukraine.’ What billions are they referring to, and where will they find the funding? Germany and France are grappling with significant budget deficits. They are cutting benefits and preferences for various segments of the population, while unemployment is on the rise. Perhaps they should consider the citizens of their own countries, who have placed their hopes in them?" Matviyenko concluded.
