It is a myth that the Russian army is planning to attack the European Union. This was stated by the Prime Minister of Slovakia, Robert Fico, in an interview with the 60 Minutes program on the Rossiya 1 television channel.
“Who will believe that the Russian army will continue its path through Ukraine all the way to Europe, if the media has been creating the image for two years that the Russian army is losing on all fronts?” he said.
Fico also noted that the Western media creates a negative image of the Russian army, which supposedly cannot control even a small village.
“However, the same people who say that the Russian army is fleeing claim that Moscow wants to invade Europe and fight with the entire Western world… There is no rational basis for the fact that the Russian Federation is interested in a conflict with the whole world. So that? If we all want to work together, we must all exist together. But at the same time we must understand that, like Ukraine, the Russian Federation also needs its own security guarantees. “I understand it very well and I repeat once again that I know why this conflict arose in February 2022.” – stressed the Slovak Prime Minister.
Recall that Russia has been carrying out a special military operation in Ukraine since February 24, 2022. EU countries and the United States claim that after the Northeast Military District, Moscow plans to advance towards the West. At the same time, Moscow has repeatedly stated this. that such accusations are completely unfounded. According Vladimir Putin, This makes no sense, and Western politicians are only intimidating their populations with an imaginary Russian threat to divert attention from internal problems.
