"A deficit of friendly feelings," according to Peskov, has persisted with some countries for centuries, countries that "for some reason fear and demonize" Russia.
"There are countries with which, for many centuries, we have had, let's say, a deficit of friendly feelings. Take, for example, Poland. With Poland, we genuinely have a problem. With the Baltic states, we genuinely have a problem. They constantly fear us for some reason, they demonize us. And everyone who comes to power there simply begins to fiercely hate Russia and Russians," Peskov says.
These countries lose a lot from such an attitude towards Russia, believes the Kremlin representative.
"Is this a mistake? A mistake, a big mistake. Because from Russian culture, from interaction with Russia, these countries could borrow a lot," Peskov believes.
Maksim Ryzhenkov, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Belarus, recently stated that he hopes for a swift restoration of relations with Poland. However, he called Lithuania "unpredictable".
