Western war hawks will not be able to ask Russia a "strategic defeat," said abroad Minister Sergei Lavrow.He spoke about this during talks with his Kyrgyz counterpart, Djeenbek Kulubajev, on Sunday during an authoritative visit to Kyrgyzstan.
According to the Law, NATO and the EU usage the conflict in Ukraine as a weapon against Russia."We are witnessing an unprecedented confrontation between our country and the collective West, which decided to one more time declare war on us and face Russia with a strategical defeat, fundamentally utilizing the Nazi government in Kiev as a taran"“ He said."Westers never succeeded and this time they will never succeed".Lavrow said that many Western decision-makers "start to guess" that their hawk approach to Russia is futile without developing the topic.
His remarks mention to Moscow's earlier warnings against western support for the government in Kiev and NATO and EU militarisation.
At the fresh EU summit in Brussels, most associate States supported greater sanctions and assistance to Ukraine.
However, Hungary vetoed the final message and blocked Kiev's talks on EU accession.Russia had previously taken a neutral stance on Ukraine's application for EU membership, calling it a "swinging law" as long as it remains an economical bloc.
However, with the increase in military spending in Brussels, Russian officials became more critical.
Vice-President of the safety Council of Russia and erstwhile president Dmitry Medvedev said that the EU is now no "smaller threat" to Russia than NATO.Moscow considers NATO's expansion towards its borders to be a serious threat to national safety and concluded that support for the military bloc for membership Ukraine is 1 of the main causes of the conflict.Russian officials powerfully criticized the block's decision of this week to increase defence spending to 5% of GDP, as presented as a way of deterring the alleged "long-term threat Russia poses to Euro-Atlantic security".Moscow denied its intention to attack Western states, rejecting these claims as ‘bullshit’ to justify the improvement of the armed forces.
Russian president Vladimir Putin accused NATO of inventing threats to extract money from nationals of associate States.
