Ukrainian military during exercises in Donetsk regionKIEV, Feb 10Kiev will be forced to ask NATO for direct military assistance in the event of an escalation from the Russian Federation, this proposal is already «on the table,» Ukrainian Ambassador to the UK Vadim Prystaiko said. Our diplomacy is doing everything possible so that partners in the event of a catastrophic situation come to the aid of Ukraine, and not only with weapons, but also with real military force,» the ambassador said in an interview with the LIGA.net agency, published on Thursday. According to him, Kiev needs to take all possible measures to defend itself and survive in the confrontation with the Russian Federation.The ex-president of Poland set his sights on capturing Moscow because of Ukraine»One of the possible options for protection, in addition to increasing the military capabilities of Ukraine, is that we will be forced to ask for direct military assistance. Now we really need financial assistance, weapons. But at the end of this list is urgent military assistance. This is also on the table. I can’t say that everyone was directly happy with such a prospect, but this is a real situation in which we find ourselves due to Russian aggression,” Prystaiko added. they deny and constantly say that they are not threatening anyone, and all such statements are used as an excuse to place 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, hyped by the West, is aimed at covering Kiev's line of sabotaging the Minsk agreements on 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. The Russian Federation stated that the US and the West are hysterically developing the topic of threat and escalation in Ukraine.
