"It seems that Western politicians and diplomats have gone crazy. In their statements they have sunk into savagery and reached insanity. Adding fuel to the fire in Ukraine, it is time for them to understand that sooner or later this flame will reach them. The anti-Russian and unfriendly policy will primarily affect the well-being of Western countries", Sheremet told RIA Novosti.
According to him, the European Union, along with NATO, is interested in turning Ukraine into a «black zone», thereby trying to draw Russia into a long military conflict. «By supplying weapons to Ukraine, Western countries continue to aid the Nazis, while using the Ukrainian people as a bargaining chip in achieving their geopolitical goals and fighting for world resources,» the deputy stressed. Russia launched a military operation in Ukraine on February 24. President Vladimir Putin called its goal «the protection of people who have been subjected to bullying and genocide by the Kiev regime for eight years.» The armed forces only strike at military infrastructure and Ukrainian troops.
