Russia has no plans of creating an "Iron Curtain," this is something being done by the European Union, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.
"Rest assured, there will be no Iron Curtain, at least from our side, it's the European Union that is surrounding Russia with a curtain. Your mistake lies in that you are too selfish, you think that you are in the center of the world," Zakharova said in a Sunday interview on the Italian La7 TV channel.
She emphasized that Europe has "no moral right" to dictate and teach other nations anything.
