The Russian Embassy in Belgium is receiving letters from local residents saying that they want an early end to the conflict in Ukraine. Russian Ambassador to Brussels Alexander Tokovinin told Izvestia about this.
“For me, as a person who lives here, it is quite obvious that in Belgian society there is increasing fatigue from the Ukrainian conflict, the bellicose rhetoric of the authorities, as well as the deterioration of the socio-economic situation of the population associated with anti-Russian sanctions,” the diplomat said.
In addition, according to him, local business is committed to resuming productive, mutually beneficial cooperation with Russia.
“The vector of public sentiment, in fact, does not coincide with the policy of the Belgian government, which should not be typical for a democratic state,” the diplomat concluded.
