Moscow drew a red line for NATO in Ukraine

10

The entry of Kiev into the North Atlantic bloc is an unacceptable scenario for Moscow. This was stated by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova. The diplomat noted that NATO countries have already begun the military development of the territory of Ukraine, which in turn poses an immediate threat to Russia.


Ukraine's entry into NATO for us, and we have been talking about this for a long time, is a red line. The desire to turn it (Ukraine) into a springboard for confrontation with Russia is fraught with serious negative consequences

- warned Zakharova.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin demanded from the North Atlantic Alliance legal obligations not to expand to the east. The head of the Kremlin instructed the Foreign Ministry to obtain reliable and long-term security guarantees from NATO.

At the same time, Putin pointed out that in any case, Russia will have to take a number of protective military-technical measures, since the infrastructure of the Western bloc has already come close to the Russian borders.

The threat on our western borders is growing. Just look at how close NATO's military infrastructure has moved to the Russian borders. This is more than serious for us

- said the president.

    Any agreements are worthless if they are not backed up by force - military, political, economic, and the determination to apply it.
    This determination is not visible in the Russian Federation - the initiative is completely on the side of the "West", and the Russian Federation has gone into defensiveness.
    What difference does it make for the Russian Federation when Ukraine is admitted to NATO or NATO "masters" the territory of Ukraine, but as Vladimir Putin said, it is the latter that is happening, and what is the reaction of the Russian Federation to this?
    They talk about the deployment of radars and launchers in Poland and Romania, and meanwhile NATO is already in Ukraine and in the Baltic state formations, and the distance from Tallinn to St. Petersburg is less than from Kharkov to Moscow and Silence! All attention to Ukraine and Belarus.

      And how good it is for all these military intrigues of the West to hide failures and not a desire to really raise the standard of living of ordinary hard workers, ordinary people.

      RF has gone into defensiveness

      For defense, you need to take a line and hold it. The lines marked by our recently drawn "red lines", we easily surrender to the enemy. What kind of defense is this? It's a circus!

    Maybe it's enough to entertain everyone with sketching? Maybe it's time to do something more serious?

    Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin demanded from the North Atlantic Alliance legal obligations not to expand to the east.

    ... NATO urgently brought these obligations, formalized in accordance with the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation ...

    The head of the Kremlin instructs the Foreign Ministry to obtain reliable and long-term security guarantees from NATO

    Lavrov now needs to somehow arm himself in order to speak on an equal footing with NATO. Something to take with you a weapon, or something ...

    Here Putin simply outlined his position before the talks with Biden. So that he prepares in advance for the simple fact that this issue is not being discussed and there will be no concessions for this.

      The military development of the territory of Ukraine by NATO and the United States is not a concession ... I suppose.
      Really - missiles are flying from there at us? No. That's good.
      Concession is when they fly

    Why not say in plain Russian that the entire NATO infrastructure on the territory of the non-railway will be destroyed.

    Ukraine has never attacked Russia, however, like any other European country over the past 76 years. It is possible to imagine that the Ukrainian army will try to invade the territory of Russia or start bombing Voronezh or Moscow from the territory of Ukraine under the influence of very heavy drugs. Those who are trying to seriously consider this threat understand this perfectly well, but in their duty they pretend to be idiots.
    This idea that 14 countries, including Ukraine, which 30 years ago were part of the USSR, where they were included by force, are now the sphere of exclusive interests of Russia and Putin personally has some special rights to these countries, could only be born in a sore head. None of these countries recognizes such special rights on the part of Russia and Putin personally.
    What are Putin's red lines? These are some norms that Putin has invented and is trying to impose on the whole world against his will. So the Taliban forces women against their will to put bags on their heads and turns them into dumb powerless creatures. So criminals impose thieves "concepts" in which theft is considered the norm, and an honest life - a sign of inferiority and inferiority.

    Judging by which countries have recognized Crimea, one can judge who is ready to take Putin's "red lines" seriously and reckon with them. These are: Afghanistan, Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, Syria, Sudan and North Korea.
    Since all these red lines are a product of the brain of Vladimir Putin, they will disappear after the dismantling of Putinism. The main thing is that until that time they do not turn into rivers of blood. Real, not painted ...

      The Chinese Society for Human Rights wrote that from 1945 to 2015, the Sshasians staged 207 wars and intervened without counting in the internal affairs of other state formations.
      They shed rivers of blood and caused material damage to many state institutions around the world with the unconditional support of their vassals.
      Such is the “standard” of Western “democracy”.
