NATO is not interested in peace in Ukraine, and is intent only on containing and undermining Russia, a top diplomat has claimed, saying that this is why the West won’t listen to Moscow’s insistence that it has no plans to invade its neighbor.
In an interview with TASS on Thursday, Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko said that no matter what Russia says, NATO countries will not believe that it has no aggressive intentions. “The situation has become completely absurd,” he complained. “We have repeatedly stated at various levels that we have no plans to ‘invade’ or ‘attack’ Ukraine. However, the West, and the Ukrainians too, are reluctant to hear what we say. Clearly, establishing peace in Ukraine is not part of NATO’s plans.”
He also claimed that everything the West was doing involving Ukraine was aimed only at “ensuring the so-called ‘containment’ of Russia and undermining our defense capabilities and economic development.”
