[１４日 ロイター] – High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Borrell, the European Union’s foreign minister, said the EU will not have trust with China unless China contributes to efforts to find a political solution to the Ukraine crisis by withdrawing Russian troops. He called it “extremely difficult.”
