This was stated by the ex-Prime Minister of Poland Donald Tusk, who in December will become the new chairman of the European Council, in an interview with Financial Times. “For Putin and Russia, the EU is a problem today. We must understand, and I think we are close to this that Russia is not our strategic partner. Russia is our strategic problem,” Tusk told the publication.
