JAKARTA - Russia has threatened Ukraine and Moldova who are candidates for European Union (EU) membership. The Government of the Red Bear Country warned of the negative consequences of this.

Faced with this threat, Ukraine did not flinch. Ukraine is ready to provide support to Moldova in the face of this threat, said Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba on Saturday, June 25 local time.

"We stand with the friendly people and government of Moldova in the midst of a new threat coming from Moscow," Kuleba said on Twitter.

"All that remains of Russia is threatening other countries after decades of failing to implement policies based on aggression, coercion and disrespect," he continued.

Russia on Friday, June 24, said the decision of EU leaders to accept Ukraine and Moldova as candidate members had negative consequences.

Although the process of accepting EU members took years, the decision became a symbol of the EU's desire to embrace the former Soviet Union more closely.

By extending the EU's scope to Ukraine and Moldova, the EU sacrificed democratic ideals for the "unbridled expansion and political and economic enslavement of its neighbours."
