Russia has issued a sharp diplomatic rebuke to the European Union regarding the war in Ukraine. Moscow stated that the EU cannot "pour oil on the fire" by supporting Ukraine and then ask for a seat at the negotiating table. The comment reflects Russia's ongoing stance that Western military aid to Kyiv is an obstacle to peace talks. It comes as the EU is reportedly preparing a new sanctions package against Russia.
