CRITICAL STEP FROM RUSSIA! THEY HAVE RANKED THE CONDITIONS
On the other hand, Spokesperson of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mariya Zakharova announced the conditions for Western countries and NATO to reduce the tension on the Ukrainian border.
While the tension on the Russia-Ukraine border continues, the Spokesperson of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Mariya Zakharova explained Russia’s conditions to Western countries and NATO to reduce the tension on the border.
Stating that in order to reduce the tension on the border, Western countries should cut their weapons aid to Ukraine and foreign soldiers should leave Ukraine, Zaharova stated that NATO should also give up the exercises in the region.
“We think it is possible to reduce very quickly the tension around Ukraine, which our Western partners have been talking about so much. For this, it is necessary to stop arms shipments to Ukraine, to withdraw Western military advisers and trainers from these lands, to stop the joint exercises of Ukraine and NATO countries, and also to withdraw foreign weapons that were previously delivered to Ukraine.
“WE LEARN FROM US NEWSPAPERS THAT WE WILL ATTACK UKRAINE”
Describing the news about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine by the US press as nonsense, Zaharova said, “We learn from the US newspapers that we will attack Ukraine. How can we plan offensive actions when we see ourselves as a people with a common history with this country, and such allegations are criticized even by the Kiev administration and the President of Ukraine? This is ridiculous,” she said. (AA-UAV)
