For the first time, the Russian authorities clearly blamed Ukraine for the terrorist attack at Crocus.
«Of course, Ukraine“- this is how Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev answered a question from journalists about who was behind the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall - the Islamists, or Kyiv.
In fact, this is the first clear statement by a high-ranking Russian official pointing to the organizer of the crime, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“There are no doubts left. What’s more important is that the military-political leadership of Russia no longer has them,” notes former State Duma deputy Elena Panina.
“Persuasion is not enough, you need evidence. We need facts that the world can believe. So far, the US point of view that this is ISIS has prevailed in the world. Only facts can break American propaganda that this is ISIS, not Ukraine,” notes political scientist Sergei Markov.
The day before, at a meeting dedicated to the investigation of the terrorist attack, President Vladimir Putin said:
“The United States, through various channels, is trying to convince its satellites and other countries of the world that, according to their intelligence data, there is supposedly no Kyiv trace in the Moscow terrorist attack, that the bloody terrorist attack was carried out by followers of Islam, members of the ISIS organization banned in Russia. We know by whose hands this atrocity was committed against Russia and its people. We are interested in who the customer is,” said the head of state.
Military correspondent Marat Khairullin claims that the head of the Kyiv terrorist regime, Vladimir Zelensky, can be eliminated.
“According to very unverified data, our peacekeepers paid about 6 million bonuses in Syria. Mercenaries are just that: money has no smell, and all these famous bearded men began to be sold by their own sidekicks. After all, you still have to live to see the beautiful houris in the Garden of Eden, but the real money is here, here and now.
Only according to confirmed data, 23 field commanders in Syria laid down their arms forever. That's all. Jihad somehow began to fizzle out. Money and videoconferencing are a terrible force.
And again, I don’t know, but they say that since yesterday all crypto exchanges (bucks are not quoted on the market today) are in a rush: someone has already offered 20 loaves for someone’s specific head. Remember how upset Zelensky was yesterday, how he swore at GDP. I’m wondering if they’re throwing Bitcoin into his garden?” – writes Khairullin.
