In recent days, Kiev’s provocative actions near the demarcation line in Donbass have intensified. This was noted by the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov. At the same time, Peskov stressed that not a single Western representative is talking about the huge strike potential of the Ukrainian armed forces on the demarcation line. Everyone is talking only about the fact that Russia retains a huge strike potential on the border. In this case, we are talking about Russian territory.
The intensification of provocations in the last few days by Kiev creates a very dangerous situation. Peskov was also alarmed by the undisguised informational aggression against Russia and the real state of affairs on the part of many Western countries, representatives of a number of organizations, including NATOreports RIA News.
Moscow regrets that the West does not want to see the aggressive aspirations of Kiev on the line of contact in the Donbass.
Western countries, the Kremlin spokesman noted, “have forgotten how they burned people in Odessa, how they killed people in the Donbass when a civil war was going on there.”
And every time, Dmitry Peskov continued, when the West blames Russia for something, Western countries do not remember Kiev’s calls not to start a new civil war.
In Donetsk and Luhansk, they believe that Kiev, with its shelling, is deliberately provoking a escalation of the situation and inciting a conflict in the Donbass. DPR and LPR militias are allowed to return fire to suppress the firing points of Ukrainian armed units.
