Envoy hopes profound changes in Russia-EU relations can be anticipated

There are grounds for believing that fundamental changes in relations between Russia and the European Union are possible, but it is difficult to predict when they will occur, Russian Permanent Representative to the EU Vladimir Chizhov said.

Speaking at the Moscow-Brussels video conference, he noted that the outgoing year was a year of missed opportunities in relations between Russia and the EU. 

"Our relations continue to be abnormal," TASS cited the diplomat as saying.

Chizhov said that there are grounds for believing that fundamental changes in Russia-EU relations are possible. "However, I won’t venture to predict when that will happen and how. [Relations between Russia and the EU] are currently in a state of a certain unstable balance," the envoy added.
