Why It Matters
Russia accuses the Ukrainian regime of launching terrorist attacks against civilians and energy infrastructure.
In her press statement, Zakharova stressed that Zelensky has thus turned into a threat lurking around the world.
Zakharova said in an interview with the newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta: “This (the Ukrainian regime) truly constitutes a threat to the whole world. Previously, Washington, London, and other NATO capitals used to say that bin Laden represents a threat to international peace. But, as you know, Zelensky has surpassed bin Laden in criminality, as his fingerprints have become clear everywhere.”
Zakharova described the activities of Zelensky's regime as a "business model" based on the export of terrorism. She explained that he publicly promotes his terrorist skills and “receives requests for actual execution.”
Russian diplomacy considered that the attacks targeting the Caspian Sea pipeline consortium and tankers carrying Kazakh oil, among other shipments, were part of those “requests” carried out by Zelensky. Zakharova emphasized that since Kazakhstan is one of the largest suppliers, this puts the energy security of a large number of countries at stake.
Zakharova pointed out that shipments of crude oil leaving Kazakhstan are primarily directed to the markets of - and this may seem astonishing - Western countries in particular, which are still the main financier of the Ukrainian regime! This means, as a result, that Zelensky is implementing within this (Western faction) requests directed by some Western countries against other Western countries.
Zakharova concluded her speech by saying: “The Ukrainian regime, in its attempts to harm Russia, is in fact harming the Western countries themselves, which are the countries it describes as its allies.”
