West haunt Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview with the TV channel that the only goal is to destroy the Russian Federation. “Russia 1”.
“They have only one goal – to dissolve the former Soviet Union and its main part, the Russian Federation,” he said.
According to the head of state, the Russian people may not survive if the West manages to destroy the Russian Federation and establish control over its parts.
“If we go this way [распада России], I think that the fate of many peoples of Russia, and above all, of course, of the Russian people could change dramatically. I don’t even know if an ethnic group like the Russian people can survive in its present form. Well, some Muscovites, Urals, etc. will be,” he said.
Putin stressed that the relevant “plans are prepared on paper”.
Now, when efforts to re-establish the world for themselves after the disintegration of the Secular Union put it in such a situation, of course we have to respond to it,” he explained.
According to him, “the West could only partially accept Russia into the so-called “family of civilized peoples” and tear the country apart.” “For what? To push these parts and take them under your control, ”says the President of the Russian Federation.
Special operation in Ukraine
Putin added that NATO’s supply of weapons to Ukraine can be considered participation in the conflict, because the alliance does not receive money for it.
“They are supplying tens of billions of dollars worth of weapons to Ukraine. And after all this, there is participation in a sense. From where? They don’t get paid just because there is no military-technical cooperation, do they? They don’t get paid!” the head of state pointed.
Putin said that Russia should take into account the nuclear potential of all NATO countries, not just the United States.
“In today’s conditions – when all the leading NATO countries have declared their main goal, as they say, to inflict a strategic defeat on us so that our people will suffer – how can we not reckon with their nuclear potential?” stated.
The President of the Russian Federation reminded that NATO is not officially a party to the START Treaty – the agreement was signed between Moscow and Washington. Putin claims that the North Atlantic Alliance has declared its desire to become a member of START-3 “at the suggestion of the Americans”.
“The world must change”
The Russian leader said that Russia is against the construction of a new world in the interests of a single country – the United States, whose satellites are involved in the fight against the Russian Federation.
“However, they are well aware that everything States do is purely for their own selfish interests. “Often it doesn’t even fit the interests of their so-called allies,” he said.
In his opinion, ultimately the position of the Russian Federation is a struggle for a multipolar world, respect for everyone and everyone in the international arena, taking into account the interests of all – will prevail. “I have no doubt about it,” said Putin.
