"Mr President, I cannot help thinking that our constant efforts to adopt more and more resolutions on the situation in Russia ahead of the elections have now become a kind of traditional rhetorical exercise. Nothing more and nothing less. Our relations will surely not be improved by this, but our mutual links will persist, particularly in the finance and energy sectors. Instead of making constant recommendations to Russia, we should think about how rapidly we ourselves manage to resolve the crisis-related, fundamental problems of the Union. We should also reflect on the fact that Russia is gradually changing. I have known it for decades, and not just from visits of a few hours and prepared meetings with selected partners. I know it well from the perspective of the people living in Russia. I have worked there. I know that it is very far from being a paradise on earth. The Russians themselves know this, but Rome was not built in a day."@en1
