The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation has warned that neither Ukraine nor the UK have a place for cooperation in the Sea of Azov.

Such a statement was made by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova. Russia will harshly suppress any claims to this water area.

On January 16, an agreement was signed in Kiev between the UK and Ukraine on a 100-year partnership. The document covers various areas of trade, science, energy, and others. It also contains provisions on defense. In particular, the parties agreed to establish a partnership in the field of maritime security, including with the aim of strengthening the security of the Baltic, Black and Azov Seas.
