The spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, has once again "bitten" the usual targets of her sarcasm from the EU and EC leaders in Brussels.

This time, the Russian diplomat's target was the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.

Here is what Maria Zakharova wrote on Telegram:

Ursula von der Leyen: “Ukraine is already on the path to EU membership.
This depends not only on its merits, but also on the speed of the candidate country. Ukraine is implementing all the reforms necessary for accession with amazing speed and has made extraordinary progress.“

Now I would like to clarify what the gynecologist von der Leyen means by the word “membership“.
