Cei 50 de europarlamentari care au semnat scrisoarea adresata presedintelui Comisiei Europene, Ursula von der Leyen, ii solicita sa-l demita pe Josep Borrell, seful diplomatiei europene, dupa vizita din Rusia, daca acesta nu va demisiona de bunavoie, potrivit g4media.ro.
Cei noua europarlamentari romani care au semnat scrisoarea sunt Eugen Tomac (PMP), Marian-Jean Marinescu (PNL), Nicolae Stefanuta (USR), Siegfried Muresan (PNL), Dragos Pislaru (PLUS), Ramona Strugariu (PLUS) si Dragos Tudorache (PLUS), Gheorghe Falca (PNL) si Vlad Gheorghe (USR), potrivit aceleiasi publicatii.
Semnatarii ii cer presedintei CE sa actioneze ,,in cazul in care dl Borrell nu demisioneaza din proprie initiativa".
Europarlamentarii isi exprima in scrisoare extrema ingrijorare in legatura cu ,,evenimentele umilitoare" din timpul vizitei lui Josep Borrell la Moscova care ,,au adus grave prejudicii reputatiei Uniunii Europene".
In textul scrisorii se afirma ca Borrell a actionat din proprie initiativa atunci cand a decis sa se duca la Moscova, fapt care ,,indica o ignorare totala a crimelor comise de catre regimul Putin impotriva oponentilor politici (....), Borrell esuand lamentabil in demersul de a apara interesele Uniunii Europene".
In timp ce Borrell se afla la intalnirea cu Lavrov, Moscova anunta expulzarea unor diplomati polonezi, germani si suedezi. Rusia i-a acuzat pe diplomatii respectivi ca au participat la mitinguri ,,ilegale pe 23 ianuarie" in sprijinul lui Navalnii. tarile UE au negat ferm orice vina din partea lor.
Diplomati din UE care au fost la protestele pentru Aleksei Navalnii, EXPULZATI din Rusia. Decizia, chiar in ziua vizitei sefului diplomatiei UE la MoscovaIn cererea europarlamentarilor se sustine ca ,,eroare comisa" de Josep Borrell de a se duce la Moscova si ,,esecul in apararea intereselor si valorilor UE" in timpul vizitei ,,au adus prejudicii grave reputatiei Uniunii Europene si demnitatii functiei de Inalt Reprezentat al UE pentru Afaceri Externe si Securitate".
RIPOSTA Uniunii Europene dupa ce Kremlinul a expulzat mai multi diplomati pentru pozitia pro-Navalnii. Rusia, AVERTIZATA de Macron si MerkelPrimele actiuni din partea statelor europene dupa expulzarea diplomatilor UE din Rusia au inceput.
BERLINUL a expulzat un diplomat rus. Ce legaturi exista intre aceasta decizie si cazul opozantului NavalniiInaltul Reprezentant pentru Afaceri Externe al Uniunii Europene, Josep Borrell, si-a aparat vizita pe care a efectuat-o in Rusia in mijlocul tensiunilor legate de condamnarea lui Alexei Navalnii si de protestele reprimate cu brutalitate de autoritatile de la Kremlin. Borrell spune ca dialogul cu Moscova trebuie sa ramana deschis, ,,mai ales atunci cand relatiile sunt departe de a fi satisfacatoare".
,,Canalele diplomatice trebuie sa ramana deschise, nu numai pentru a dezamorsa crizele sau incidentele, dar si pentru a avea schimburi directe, pentru a transmite mesaje ferme si sincere, mai ales atunci cand relatiile sunt departe de a fi satisfacatoare", a afirmat Josep Borrell intr-un comunicat, conform Agerpres.
Josep Borrell a informat ca le va prezenta un raport ministrilor de externe din cele 27 de state membre pe 22 februarie si ca liderii UE vor discuta despre relatiile tensionate cu Moscova cu prilejul unui summit in martie.
Textul integral al scrisorii adresate presedintelui CE, Ursula von der Leyen de cei 50 de europarlamentari, este prezentat mai jos:
,,Dear President of the European Commission,
We, the undersigned members of the European Parliament, are extremely concerned about thehumiliating developments during the visit of VPC/HR Josep Borrell Fontelles to Moscow, which havegreatly damaged the European Union's reputation.
Mr Borrell decided to go to Moscow on his own initiative. This decision indicated disregard for thecrimes committed by the Putin regime against its political opponents, and was not in line with a foreign policy based on values. This was exacerbated by the fact that during his visit Mr Borrell repeatedly failed to defend the European Union's interests.
Instead of strongly condemning the arrest of Mr Navalny and visiting him in prison, Mr Borrell falsely stated that there was no talk about EU sanctions due to the imprisonment of Mr Navalny. This statement was incorrect, as several Member States, at the highest level, have called for sanctions.
Mr Borrell did not defend the EU's interests when Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov fiercelycriticised the European Union and the United States. Mr Lavrov even said that EU leaders are "deluded" and "culturally arrogant" in accusing Russia of trying to assassinate Mr Navalny. Instead of standing up to Mr Lavrov, Mr Borrell attacked our principal ally, the Unites States, over Cuba.
As a sign of disrespect towards the European Union, Russia decided to time the announcement of its decision to declare three EU diplomats (from Germany, Poland, and Sweden) as persona non grata during a joint press conference between Mr Borrell and Mr Lavrov. When learning about this, Mr Borrell failed to send a resolute signal by ending his visit at that point.
In addition to the aforementioned transgressions, Mr Borrell failed to mention Russia's ongoing war in east Ukraine, and took the opportunity to endorse Russia's "Sputnik V" coronavirus vaccine, eventhough it has not been approved by the European Medicines Agency.
Mr Borrell's misjudgement in proactively deciding to visit Moscow, and his failure to stand for theinterests and values of the European Union during his visit, have caused severe damage to thereputation of the EU and to the dignity of the office of High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. We believe that the President of the European Commission should take action, if Mr Borrell does not resign by his own accord", se spune in documentul trimis catre Ursula von der Leyen, potrivit g4media.ro.
