British Defense Secretary Compared Talks With Russia To Trying To Stop Nazis Before World War II

18

After talking in Moscow with Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, British Defense Minister Ben Wallace in an interview with the British newspaper The Sunday Times compared negotiations with Russia to an attempt to stop the Nazis before the Second World War. During the conversation, he dropped a phrase about the Munich Agreement of 1938.

This agreement, also known in world history as the Munich Agreement, is an agreement between Germany, Great Britain, France and Italy, as a result of which the Third Reich, Poland and Hungary divided Czechoslovakia. The incorrect words of the head of the British military department caused a great resonance in Europe. After that, the British Minister for Northern Ireland, Brandon Lewis, made excuses to the local media for his government colleague.



Lewis assured in an interview with Sky News that Wallace did not compare the Russian Federation with the Third Reich and hopes for the sincerity of Moscow, which claims that it is not going to invade anywhere, including Ukraine. Wallace's phrase that "there is the smell of Munich in the air" is just a reminder of the diplomatic efforts that Europeans were making at that time to prevent a major war.

Ben implied that we are all trying to find a diplomatic solution to get out of the current situation around Ukraine, but he also expressed concern that Russia may be less sincere in finding a solution and diplomatic interactions than we hope.

- Lewis added already to the BBC television company, answering on this topic.

Lewis also spoke of the existence of "technical the possibility of a Russian invasion" and repeated everything that had been говорил Deputy Minister of Defense of Great Britain James Hippie: London will not send troops to Ukraine and there will be no evacuation of cooperating citizens, as in Afghan Kabul.

Ukrainian Ambassador to London Vadym Prystaiko also reacted to what was happening.

Now is not the best time for us to insult our international partners, reminding them that those actions did not bring peace, but exactly the opposite - war

- Prystaiko pointed out, making it clear that the diplomatic efforts of the West in relation to Russia are useless.

    Actually, neither the British "peacekeepers" nor the French Hitler's accomplices are absolutely out of place to remind about their Munich "deal" with the Nazis, indulging the "European hyenas" - allies of Germany with Poland in their predatory "partition of Czechoslovakia" which gave the European ( the Asian start of WWII was given by Germany's ally Japan in the same year-1938, attacking China) the start of World War II!
    And if we "compare with an attempt to stop the Nazis before WWII", then in the role of modern Nazis (and in essence, "according to their deeds", they are such, despite the hypocritical "verbal assurances" of the Fashington and London Naziracists of their supposedly "democratic"!) are the "sniffed" USA and the WB, with their NATO allies (almost all of whom were accomplices of Nazi Berlin in the "pan-European" occupation "Drang nach Osten" in World War II, and now set out to "repeat" the bloody aggression led by Nazi Washington?!)!

      Exactly. Without thinking, he blurted out a stupidity that turned out to be true. We are trying with all our might to delay the war, which the descendants of the Nazis, who fled to the United States and Canada, who crawled out of the underground, the remnants of Bandera, and world capital, who love war like their own mother, are stubbornly trying to impose on us.

    An attempt to shove the unimaginable. Completely different situations and completely inadequate comparison.
    It must be admitted that the level of professionalism and elementary knowledge of history is not inherent in Western "elites". There is degradation.

      You know. I have a different opinion. They have already dehumanized themselves so much that they don't even understand how to live, speak, act like a human being. They invented some kind of "rainbow civilization". They squeal with pleasure watching the maddened crowd tearing the old man to pieces. They sneer in pictures at the deaths of refugees. They are bombing countries.... They are planting farming... Lies, slander have become commonplace... And much more. And seeing those who have not descended to this level, they are disassembled by anger and hatred, becoming a pathology.

        When the United States and bestial England lose the opportunity to influence events in the World, then 90% of all troubles on Planet Earth will cease to exist.

      The Russian population is not dying under the influence of NATO. Including the Russian titular nation.

          NATO does not have any effect of fire and maneuver, and the population is reduced as during the war. Cheap counterfeit alcohol, affordable drugs, AIDS, HIV, road accidents, bad ecology. Failed health care reform.

    Well, here we come. Okay, uneducated lady. But it turns out that the head of the Ministry of Defense. decided to turn everything upside down? I remember England's sympathy for Nazi Germany... They themselves wrote a lot about this.

    Do not confuse God's gift with scrambled eggs! The hypocrisy and deceitfulness of Western propaganda has long been known. Britain does not need to be reminded of its shame. The Munich agreement led to the strengthening of fascism in Europe and in the world. Fascism won - the USSR.

    Arrogant Saxons are very inventive) Their verbal and psychological balancing act is incomparable. They didn't have a war for a long time. Trying to set brother against brother (as always). Well, yes, it's like "launching a boomerang in the dark." The islands (especially now), they are the islands (with all due respect to Byron, Shakespeare and English football) are completely washable. The Germans and the French (I'm not talking about the Danes and "other Swedes" (c)) are already on the stretch.
