Kiev political scientist: Bases in Ochakov and Berdyansk are needed to destabilize Russia
Official Kyiv does not have its own opinion on foreign policy issues.
This was reported by the PolitNavigator correspondent, said by Kiev political scientist, head of the Ukrainian Politics Foundation, Konstantin Bondarenko, who believes that the current Ukrainian authorities do not form their own vision of the country’s future at all.
“Official Kyiv on this issue adheres to exactly the same opinion as official London and Washington. If they say there that Ukraine is on the verge of war with Russia, then we readily agree with this,” the expert told Moskovsky Komsomolets.
According to him, recently there was the only case since 2014 when the Ukrainian authorities violated this rule.
“The Americans said that Russia was concentrating its troops on the Ukrainian border, and the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense said that it was not observing anything like that. Several days passed, and the scouts “saw.” Apparently, someone hit them on the head,” the analyst noted.
He is convinced that the West is trying to turn Ukraine into anti-Russia and its outpost on the eastern borders, without taking into account Ukrainian interests.
“For example, bases in Ochakov and Berdyansk are being built with the participation of Great Britain. This is not being done as part of a humanitarian mission, but so that the British military can gain a foothold in Ukraine. Since the Constitution of Ukraine prohibits the construction of foreign military bases, it was decided to build joint use bases. In the future, they will be used as triggers to destabilize the situation in Russia,” Bondarenko predicts.
