USA PROVOKES THREATS TO RUSSIA AND PRC
The head of the Russian defense department laid out our vision of what American strategists are now trying to implement on a global scale, laying waste to the wrong hands.
– Today, Washington and its accomplices are implementing their strategic plan. It consists of provoking other countries to military confrontation with objectionable states. First of all, with Russia and China, – Shoigu emphasized, – A vivid confirmation of such a criminal policy is the conflict in Ukraine. Their true goal is to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia and create threats to China. And thus preserve its monopoly position in the world.
WHY USA ORGANIZED MAIDAN
Sergey Kuzhugetovich recalled that 9 years ago an anti-constitutional coup was launched in Ukraine precisely for the future confrontation with Russia and to change the world order.
– For all this, more than $ 5 billion was spent on the unconstitutional Maidan coup in 2014, – said the army general, – And all this led to the formation of a hostile nationalist Russophobic regime. He enthusiastically rushed to solve the “Russian question” in Ukraine.
SANCTIONS WERE PREPARED IN ADVANCE
The Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation focused on the fact that the role of the leading countries of the North Atlantic Alliance in the conflict in the Independent was inciting, and NATO and the EU were preparing for the confrontation in advance and seriously.

THE UNITED STATES DEVELOPED DOMESTIC BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS
The head of the defense department could not stop touching on the subject of biological weapons and biolaboratories that the United States had on the territory of both Ukraine and other former republics of the USSR.
– On the example of Ukraine, we see the dual purpose of these programs and their real focus on the development of components of biological weapons, – said the minister, – This is a direct violation of the Convention on the Prohibition of Biological and Toxin Weapons.
ALL NATO COUNTRIES VISIT US
Shoigu once again said that practically all NATO countries are facing us in Ukraine:
– Arms deliveries to Ukraine, the provision of intelligence data, the dispatch of military advisers and mercenaries to the combat zone were organized. The military potential and capabilities of almost all NATO countries are involved.
WESTERN WEAPONS FROM UKRAINE GO TO TERRORISTS
What military experts who are well aware of the black market for arms in Ukraine warned of intensified in 2022 and 2023, and Shoigu could not help but say this.
– Weapons transferred to Kiev end up on the “black market” and then in the hands of terrorist organizations, – emphasized the Russian Defense Minister, – This creates additional risks, especially given the statements about the supply of ammunition with a depleted uranium core. to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
US PRESSURE ON MANY COUNTRIES
The Americans are trying to change the world order and create alliances using inappropriate methods in different regions of the world; Shoigu also reminded his colleagues of this:
– Today, this destructive line is manifested in the desire to reformat the system of interstate relations through the creation of regional alliances controlled by the United States. Unprecedented pressure is exerted on independent states, blatant blackmail, threats, color riots and coups are used, and vast disinformation is spread.
