Unfortunately, she added, only Russia don't want peace in our region.

"Therefore, if it doesn't happen, we will have to agree on next and further sanctions, only that from Russia".

So, because all countries in Europe want security for their people, for their society. I know that today, as well, we will discuss issues of illegal migration and better economic cooperation, which is very important matter, as well, to Latvia, I know, as well, to Albania.
