Russia is not exerting pressure on Ukraine, but is using its right to inform Kiev about the advantages of joining Customs Union and consequences of EU accession, Russian Speaker Sergey Naryshkin said.

Whatever decision Ukraine makes, Russia will care and worry about the country, he said answering the questions during the PACE plenary session on Tuesday, ITAR-TASS reported.

“Russia is not exerting any pressure. The only thing, we have the right to present comparative information and we use it,” he said in response to a PACE delegate who named Ukraine, Moldova and Armenia among the states pressed by Russia.  

In particular, the delegate noted that Russia is taking measures to hamper Ukraine’s accession to the EU, Interfax reported.
