Certain countries instead of joining forces to battle a crime tried to divide countries and peoples with the help of new artificial conflict, said the speaker of the state Duma Sergey Naryshkin.

"why in the face of such a dangerous common enemy (terrorism - ed.) instead of joining forces (Some countries - ed.) tried to divide countries and peoples with the help of new artificial conflicts? After all, the last two years, only alienated the success of the fight against crime, And the Europeans took energy, time and even human life, never to return, " said Naryshkin at a General meeting of the Federation Council and the state Duma on problems of the fight against crime.

He said tens of thousands of dead and wounded in the Ukraine, millions of immigrants and migrants from the Middle East and North Africa.

"Who now will tell, what for all these sacrifices and losses? And in the Schengen States could be assumed that they will need again and hastily to erect boundaries and to surround themselves with barbed wire?" - added the speaker of the state Duma.
