All reports about the upcoming Russian invasion of Ukraine are fakes, propaganda and fiction. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in an interview with RT.
“The main thing is that the authors of these fakes themselves believe in what they are talking about. They love it. If you're happy, please. Why not take care of it? It brings a smile. Adult people daily “spew” forecasts, spells. Politico magazine has already changed the date of the “invasion” several times. Now it is announcing February 20,” the diplomat said.
Earlier, the United States did not believe in the withdrawal of Russian troops from the border with Ukraine and set a new date for the invasion on February 20. The American publication Politico, citing analysts, expressed confidence that the previously announced date of February 16 “diverted attention” from more important time frames.
The newspaper noticed that it was at this time that the Beijing Olympics and the Munich Security Conference ended. “Starting an invasion at a time when American dignitaries are in Europe, and the head of Ukraine [Vladimir Zelensky] is outside the country, can be an absolute humiliation – a kind of geopolitical trolling,” they say in the West.
