The head of the Kremlin specifically warned that the Russian people could disappear completely if Russia loses the war and is divided into several separate states.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, in an interview with the Rossiya-1 TV channel for the Moscow. Kremlin. Putin program, said that the supply of weapons by NATO to Ukraine can be considered participation in the conflict, since the member countries of the Alliance do not receive money for this. This was reported on February 26 by the TASS agency.
“They supply Ukraine with weapons worth tens of billions of dollars. And this is participation in a certain sense. Why? Because this is not just military-technical cooperation, they don’t get money for it? They don’t get money!” Putin said.
At the same time, the head of the Kremlin believes that if the West provides military assistance to Ukraine, it means that it is indirectly involved in the “war crimes” of the Ukrainian authorities, because Donetsk and other Donbass territories are allegedly shelled from these weapons.
“Arms are being transferred unilaterally, which means to a certain extent, at least indirectly, but still complicity in the crimes that the Kiev regime is committing, including shelling residential areas of Novorossiya and Donetsk,” said the leader of the aggressor country.
Also in the interview, Putin suggested that if the West succeeds in destroying the Russian Federation and establishing control over the newly formed regions, then the Russian people may disappear. Instead, the head of the Kremlin believes, “Muscovites, Urals and others” will appear.
It should be noted that the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, also spoke about complicity in “war crimes” on February 17. According to her, the position of the West is the height of cynicism and cowardice, since the Western allies “innocently try to prove to the world community that they are not a party to the conflict.”
