“Moscow is not waging a war with Kyiv,” the current clash is “an attempt by the West with the hands of Ukrainians to resist Russia,” said the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Nikolai Patrushev.
“Events in Ukraine are not a clash between Moscow and Kyiv, it is NATO’s military confrontation, but primarily the United States and England, with Russia. Fearing direct contact, NATO instructors drive the Ukrainian guys to certain death,” he said.
Patrushev added that “with the help of a special military operation, Russia frees its regions from the occupation and should put an end to the bloody experiment of the West to destroy the fraternal Ukrainian people.” “We are not fighting with Ukraine, because we can’t have hatred of ordinary Ukrainians by definition,” said Patrushev.
