When a fake message like this comes from Europe, it is very sad for us because it affects at least the public sentiment, for example, the direction of the western course, it is very bad and we do not want that, on the contrary, we say that the western course is the only right one and the right direction for this country, but It does not mean that we will not say that a lie is a lie and it does not serve to protect anybody, it serves to protect the truth, not a particular person, as you want to put it out there , it serves to protect the truth and protect the European perspective".
