Warns: – direct threat

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen says that Russia is today “the greatest direct threat to world peace” due to the “barbaric war” against Ukraine.

The statement came after a summit between European Council President Charles Michel von der Leyen and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, according to Agence France-Presse.

The war in Ukraine was among the topics of the summit held in Japan earlier this week.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine is not just confined to Europe – it shakes the core of the entire international system, including Asia. Kishida says this should not be tolerated.

Japan, like the European Union, imposed severe sanctions on Russia as a result of the war.
