Dmitry Belik, a member of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, said that the United States, with statements about the preparation of 18 scenarios in the event of a Russian invasion of Ukraine, clogs the information space to whip up hysteria. His words are quoted by RT.
The MP called the words of Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland “baseless statements and provocations. According to him, Russia is not going to attack Ukraine, no matter how much the United States wants it, which will generously provide assistance to Ukraine in the event of “Russian aggression.”
“This informational pressure is repeated many times, but the threat of sanctions will not be able to affect our country, we have already learned how to cope well with this,” Belik concluded.
Earlier, US Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland said that Washington had prepared 18 scenarios for actions in the event of a Russian invasion of Ukraine. She did not rule out that sanctions from the United States and European partners may differ from each other.
