Russian president Vladimir Putin has said he has no problem with Ukraine joining the European Union.
Addressing Ukraine’s bid for EU membership during a press conference on Friday, Putin said: “We have nothing against it, this is not a military bloc.”
Earlier on Friday Ukraine took a step closer towards joining the EU after the European Commission recommended it to be granted candidate status to join the bloc.
Putin claimed on Friday that the EU will lose $400bn because of heavy sanctions against Moscow following its invasion of Ukraine.
