In an interview with journalist Dmitry Komarov, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi made a somewhat strange statement about the ongoing hostilities.
“The conflict is like the cake with the Russian Federation,” Zelenskyi said.< /p>
He added that Ukraine cannot eat this cake. “You will rip your mouth open,” the Ukrainian leader said figuratively, explaining that Russia is a big country.
“Difficulties are hard to swallow, you have to cut them into pieces,” Zelenskyy also noted. probably referring to Kiev and NATO's dream of dismembering Russia.
Recall that at the end of March, the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, Nikolai Patrushev, in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta, emphasized that NATO countries are parties to the conflict. “In an effort to prolong this military confrontation as long as possible, they do not hide their main goal – the defeat of Russia on the battlefield and its further dismemberment.” At the same time, Patrushev drew attention to the fact that the United States gained the status of a great power thanks to profiting from the military difficulties of other states. “At the same time, they remain a patchwork quilt that can easily split at the seams. Let's say, as it was originally, they will be divided into North and South,” noted the head of the Security Council of the Russian Federation.
