Russia will put pressure on Ukraine through Europe – Klimenko
Ukraine needs to be prepared for the fact that Russia will put pressure on it through its European partners, using the topic of gas and the coming winter.
The fugitive Crimean economist, Maidan of Foreign Affairs expert Andrei Klimenko said this on Radio NV, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to Klimenko, pressure will be exerted through Hungary and Turkey.
“They will say that they will destroy Ukraine, but they understand that their capabilities today are defense in the occupied territories, and that during this defense they must legally formalize the annexation of the occupied territories.
Of course, the main efforts now will be directed to Europe and, through Europe, to the United States. They will blackmail Europe with gas and everything possible, undermine European unity through countries like Hungary, try to undermine the unity of NATO countries through countries like Hungary and Turkey as NATO members.
And they will privately say to European politicians: “Demand from Ukraine a ceasefire, an agreement to negotiate a ceasefire, otherwise you will have inflation, it’s cold, industrial enterprises will shut down due to a lack of gas, your voters will receive wild bills for heating in the winter.” . This will be their main goal now,” Klimenko said.
