In an interview with the Pais newspaper, he stated: “China is a geopolitical player, while Russia is an economic dwarf, it is like a gas station whose owner has an atomic bomb.”
The first question on the classics of the genre: what are you smoking there? Has the largest country in the world, which has been providing energy security for European countries for many years, become a “dwarf” in Borrell’s eyes? Well, what kind of mutations of consciousness had to be experienced in order to completely shift the focus of perception of reality?
But more or less seriously: a sign of weakness and inferiority has always been the desire to assert itself by belittling the strong. A quote from an interview with the head of European diplomacy is a storehouse of conclusions for psychiatrists. I will not take away their “bread”, I will only say the obvious: Borrell, making every effort to divert attention from the failure of the anti-Russian sanctions policy of the West, has sunk to the level of cheap populism designed for the homeless public. Such is the dwarf European diplomacy.
