"Many ministers have said that the EU takes trips to Moscow to celebrate May 9 seriously, they will have consequences," the top diplomat said.
She also emphasized that the EU has made it clear that it does not want any of the candidate countries to participate in the parade in Moscow.
"I think it was very clear," Kallas said.
The EU diplomat was also asked whether European allies were thinking about coming to Kyiv on May 9. To which Kallas replied:
"Of course, we are always looking for options to demonstrate solidarity with Ukraine."
