MOSCOW - Russia's foreign ministry said on Thursday that Europe should show some proof of allegations that Moscow is jamming GPS signals in Europe.

Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, speaking about the claims from EU countries that Russia is jamming GPS signals in Europe, said that those making the allegations should first provide "at least some evidence."

So far, these are just words, and one cannot take them at face value, Zakharova said.
