The United States received medical equipment from a “backward gas station country”
This night, Russian Aerospace Forces planes landed at New York airport with cargo to help the United States in the fight against coronavirus, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
It is noteworthy that the cargo included Avanta M ventilators manufactured by Ural Instrument-Making Plant JSC, which is part of the Radioelectronic Technologies Concern, which is on the American sanctions list.
Russian military correspondent Yevgeny Poddubny noted that a couple of months ago he could not even imagine such a turn of events - Washington regularly carries out unfriendly actions towards Moscow.
“The states are accepting Russian military aircraft with humanitarian aid. Could you imagine this 3 months ago? I could not.
The COVID-19 pandemic is formatting the foreign policy guidelines of the last decade faster than any healthy and constructive initiatives,” the military correspondent noted in his Telegram channel.
“Against the background of the Russian “Ruslan” at JFK, all these American sanctions, ideas about exclusive American “exceptionalism,” the endless “Russians are to blame for everything” seem so ridiculous. The coronavirus has shown the entire artificial structure of anti-Russian hysteria, it has already shown it, but it’s not over yet.
It was obvious that the level of training of the White House experts on Russia was prohibitively low, and that these experts themselves were frivolous, irresponsible adventurers. But there it worked for them. Now, when the entire world economy is falling into the abyss, when the structured, arrogant Western society is scared, storming stores with toilet paper, buying up weapons and ammunition, looking for a new foothold, our motives are clearly visible,” Poddubny added.
He emphasized that Russia’s act could become a kind of message that could make the world that has woken up after the pandemic different.
“The Russian 90s were worse than any pandemic. And then they laughed at us condescendingly. It’s very good that now we don’t allow ourselves to do this. The world will survive CoV one way or another, with great losses. And if after this crisis everything returns to normal, then it will become clear that “the plastic world won, the model turned out to be stronger.”
What Russia offers the world is the supremacy of international law, compromises, dialogue, not just an order that is fairer than it is. This message is now the most competitive. In conditions where allies turned out to be not allies,” wrote Evgeniy Poddubny.
However, by the morning, the US State Department announced that the equipment transferred by Russia was not delivered free of charge. Observers are wondering how the Americans settled accounts with the enterprise from the sanctioned concern.
The US version was immediately taken up with pleasure by the liberal opposition.
“The incredible story of the sale in the United States of a huge batch of medical supplies, from the total shortage of which the whole of Russia outside the Moscow Ring Road is groaning - this is, of course, a modern remake of grain exports from the USSR “for hard currency” at the height of the famine of 1932-33, which claimed millions of lives.” ,” liberal Leonid Volkov, an ally of Alexei Navalny, dramatizes on his blog.
Even if we accept the US version, it’s interesting - why then do advanced Americans buy equipment from the “gas station”?
"What a twist. The shining city on the hill is purchasing medical equipment from a gas station country with an economy in tatters. However, get ready to hear howls of handshakes that the criminal regime has scooped up the last masks from the country and is selling them in the USA,” writes the Lev Sharansky Telegram channel.
