Russia threatens EU

The Russia government has threatened to review ties with the European Union if the reconstruction gas talks with the EU and Ukraine do not safeguard its interests. What is your opinion on the issue?

Russia threatens EU

I think Russia has all the power in this situation. The EU is simply trying to be referee between the two countries, but in the end it's an issue between Russia and Ukraine. Why should Russia do any favours for a country that continues to distance itself from Russia more and more.

Yes I agree with your statement, why should Russia do all the adjustments when they don't need it, Ukraine is backed by US and they are standing against Russia just to show the US and EU.

Can we leave this for another year please - when I 'm fully settled in Russia (that's the plan?) - then we can have a war - whatever. I just wish everybody at wrong would stop acting like idiots!

A pledge by the European Union to help modernize Ukraine's gas infrastructure as "an unfriendly act" against Moscow, following a similar warning by Gazprom. Is on the latest development.

Hope the tension eases between the two and bring peace and stability to the region.
