Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesperson Maria ZakharovaMOSCOW, Feb 13The actions of the United States and Britain now are propaganda of war in its purest form, everything is ready for Washington to press the «Reload» button invented by the American ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, said Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova. «What the United States and Britain is classic war propaganda and is prohibited by the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights adopted by General Assembly resolution 2200 A (XXI) on December 16, 1966. The first paragraph of Article 20 of this document states: «All propaganda of war shall be prohibited by law «. It would seem. But Washington and London have always been true to the main principle — hands should be untied,» she wrote in her Telegram channel. />Will Russia save Ukraine Both the US and Britain make certain reservations when they commit themselves to the pact, she said. At the same time, Zakharova pointed out, the task of the pact, adopted during the Cold War, «was not only to protect human rights, but also to lead humanity away from the abyss to which the military rhetoric of the NATO countries was pushing it in those years.» «But neither Washington nor London does not deprive itself of the opportunity to put a match to a haystack. What we see now is pure war propaganda. Aggressive rhetoric covers the supply of weapons to Ukraine, the deployment of military instructors there, the holding of NATO military exercises near the Russian borders and the creation of an offensive combined-arms infrastructure Western states,” Zakharova emphasized.The West threatens Russia with «tough measures», but for some reason punishes Ukraine «The United States and Great Britain have taken out of their stash a tool that they have kept for a good half a century. And now they are brandishing it like a club, supporting controlled hysteria through CNN, Bloomberg, British tabloids media holdings, on public opinion in their countries. Everything is ready for Washington’s hand to press the “Reload” button invented by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton,” the representative of the Foreign Ministry concluded. they constantly say that they are not threatening anyone, and all such statements are used as an excuse to deploy more NATO military equipment near Russian borders.As Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said earlier, Russia does not create any pretexts for a conflict situation around Ukraine.According to him, , Russia does not rule out that the hysteria around Ukraine, promoted by the West, is aimed at to cover the line of Kiev on the sabotage of the Minsk agreements on the Donbass. According to the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov, the US and NATO information hysteria over Ukraine is generously framed by lies and fakes.
