‘We Are Facing The Entire NATO In Ukraine’: Kremlin Says, As UK Mulls Battle Tanks
Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolay Patrushev has issued ultra-provocative words claiming that it’s not fundamentally Ukraine that Russia is at war with, but that the Russian military is facing all of NATO inside Ukraine.
“The events in Ukraine aren’t a clash between Moscow and Kiev. It’s a military confrontation of NATO, first of all the US and Britain, with Russia. Fearing a direct engagement, NATO instructors push Ukrainian men to certain death,” he said in a fresh interview with state-owned newspaper
“We are not at war with Ukraine because we can’t have hatred for ordinary Ukrainians by default,” he stressed. He then presented Russian and Ukrainian heritage and closely bound up together,
But based on the words of Russian Security Council Secretary Patrushev, it seems Russia increasingly sees military confrontation with NATO as already happening. After all, the massive loss of Russian troops in the Makiivka barracks attack was reportedly accomplished with US-supplied HIMARS missile systems.
NATO won’t just be facing Russia if they keep this going. At some point the Collective West will attempt to cut off all sources of revenue for Russia. That is the supply of energy to the Global South. At some point I could envision India and China having a say in the matter. At that point WW3 starts and it won’t end well for anyone.
Reports are that NATO is rapidly draining their members of weapons and have “retired” personnel already on front lines. The old machinery is gone and now they are transferring the latest technology which will take years to replace.
It seems a rather risky “war games” strategy IF they are choosing to leave their own territory/citizens undefendable.
