The introduction of additional sanctions against Russia over the recent incident with Ukrainian ships in the Azov Sea will complicate talks on the de-escalation of the situation, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said on Thursday, Sputnik News reports.
"I proceed from the fact that EU sanctions against Russia will now be extended… This is already a signal", Maas told the Deutschlandfunk radio station, commenting on the existing EU sanctions against Moscow.
Speaking about the situation around the Azov Sea, the German minister said that all sides should contribute to de-escalating the situation.
"Germany is doing so. Together with our French partners, we are holding talks with Russia and Ukraine", Maas noted.
