Earlier, the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov told RIA Novosti that Bloomberg's erroneous publication about the beginning of the «invasion» of the Russian Federation to Ukraine speaks of the danger of aggressive statements by the United States and Western capitals, it shows how such messages can lead to irreparable consequences.
"Russia's actions may include a provocation in the Donbass … or an attack on the capital city of Kiev, officials said familiar with this issue. They said that any action could begin as early as Tuesday,» the agency reports.
Kyiv and Western states have recently expressed concern about the alleged increase in «aggressive actions» by Russia near the borders of Ukraine. Moscow has repeatedly denied such accusations, saying that it does not threaten anyone and is not going to attack anyone, and statements about «Russian aggression» are used as an excuse to deploy more NATO military equipment near Russian borders. The Russian Foreign Ministry previously noted that statements The West about «Russian aggression» and the possibility of helping Kiev defend itself against it is both ridiculous and dangerous. Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov said that Russia is moving troops within its territory and at its own discretion. According to him, this does not threaten anyone and should not worry anyone.
