The EU will not evacuate its diplomats from Kyiv despite Moscow's threats, spokesperson says
The EU will not evacuate its diplomats from Kyiv despite Moscow's threats, said EU foreign affairs spokesperson Anouar El Anouni.
▪️We will not change our position or our presence in Kyiv. Russian attacks are, unfortunately, a daily reality both in Kyiv and in other parts of Ukraine.
▪️Russia's public threats to attack Kyiv are part of its reckless escalation tactic. Russia is once again cynically trying to shift the blame for its own aggression onto Ukraine.
Earlier, Zakharova threatened "strikes on decision-making centers in Kyiv" if Ukraine carries out a strike on May 9, and called on international diplomats to evacuate from Kyiv.
