MOSCOW, 19 February. /TASS/. Russia does not want war, but is ready to stand up for the citizens of the Russian Federation and compatriots in the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics if their lives are threatened. About this on Saturday Telegram channel said State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin.
“Russia does not want war. Our President Vladimir Putin has said this many times before and is talking about it today,” Volodin.
“But if there is a threat to the lives of citizens of the Russian Federation and compatriots living in the DPR and LPR, our country will stand up for them,” the speaker added.
provocation of war
Ukrainian President Volodin said Volodymyr Zelensky is causing a big start to the war. Without outside support, the head of Ukraine would hardly have decided to take the steps that may come before the start of a war in the center of Europe, the Duma chairman believes.
“Zelensky is provoking a big start to the war,” Volodin wrote. He drew attention to the fact that the information coming from the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics is “very disturbing.” “The shelling of the world of citizens, the threat of the start of full-scale vehicles for the evacuation of residents of Donbass,” the speaker of the State Duma added.
“Without the support of the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky would hardly have decided to take steps that may seem like the beginning of a war in the center of Europe,” Volodin said.
As the parliamentarian noted, it is now becoming clear “why there were accusations from Washington against Russia.” “This is nothing but an invented imitation provocation to misinform the international communities.
“War Arena”
Volodin said that in the event of a war on the territory of Ukraine, it is Europe that is the main arena of hostilities, but the leaders of European countries are silent.
“If the war starts, it is Europe that will become the arena of hostilities,” Volodin wrote. According to him, the United States is not afraid that “by its actions, Kiev crosses out the Minsk agreements.” “They are well aware of what a tragedy all this can be like, so they evacuated their diplomats from Kiev.
“I would like to raise a demand for the deputies of European countries: do they want war? And the second question: what are you doing to prevent it?” Volodin added.
