News in Brief

20 December 2005UnknownRussia-EU Progress Kremlin envoy Sergei Yastrzhembsky said Monday that progress had been made in Moscow's relations with the European Union, but cautioned that many disagreements persist. Yastrzhembsky said Russia and the EU could enact a treaty on easing visa restrictions by 2007 as well as reach agreement on Russia readmitting illegal migrants who entered the EU from its territory. However, he reiterated Russia's complaints that the EU failed to protect the rights of Russian-speaking minorities in ex-Soviet Baltic states. Yastrzhembsky also defended the German-Russian project to build a natural gas pipeline under the Baltic Sea, and praised the decision to invite former German Chancellor Gerhard Schr?der to take a leading position in managing the pipeline.
