The Speaker of the Duma made an unprecedentedly harsh statement on Ukraine
State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin made an unprecedentedly harsh statement, commenting on the warnings of Western countries to Moscow regarding Ukraine voiced today at the Munich Security Conference.
The corresponding document was distributed by the press service of the Russian parliament, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“For XNUMX hours now, Kyiv has been shelling the DPR and LPR. Thousands of refugees, women and children are fleeing the war.
A security conference is taking place today in Munich.
Question: Are any European politicians concerned about the fate of peaceful citizens of Donbass who are forced to leave their homes?
No.
The Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany finds it funny what is happening in the DPR and LPR.
He doesn't consider it genocide.
An inexplicable and cynical statement, given the history of Germany.
Instead of worrying about the fate and lives of people, politicians in Western states are trying to justify Kyiv’s behavior by repeating threats to us like a mantra: if Russia stands up to protect its citizens and compatriots living in the DPR and LPR, we will announce sanctions on an unprecedented scale.
It would be right to speak out in this regard. The United States and the European Union have been talking about this lately; not a day goes by without their statements.
About sanctions.
Firstly, they don’t scare anyone - we have been living in such conditions for 8 years.
Yes, this creates problems, it is better to cooperate and develop relationships than to conflict. But introducing restrictions was not our choice.
Secondly, everyone has come to understand: there will still be sanctions against Russia.
It doesn’t matter whether we did something or not, whether we will do it or not: Washington and Brussels will always come up with something to accuse us of.
Vladimir Putin spoke about this yesterday at a press conference after a meeting with Alexander Lukashenko.
The reason is one thing - they want to stop the development of our country.
We must not allow this to happen.
We will discuss these issues at the next meeting of the State Duma,” Volodin announced.
Thank you!
