MOSCOW, May 28 (Reuters) - Sergei Naryshkin, head of Russia’s SVR foreign intelligence service, on Thursday accused the NATO military alliance of making practical preparations for what he called a “large-scale conflict in the east,” the state RIA news agency reported.

Naryshkin was also cited as saying that the European Union was rapidly arming itself and turning into a military alliance “directed against Russia.”
