The Kremlin representative noted that ‘a militaristic approach is now dominating in Europe’.

"The increase in defence spending is pushing the European economy into a very serious zone of discomfort, a pre-crisis state. It is clear that a further increase in costs will have an extremely negative impact and will lead to a further deterioration of the economy in Europe, this will affect every European," Mr. Peskov stressed.
