RUSSIA AGAINST NEW WORLD BUILT ONLY IN US INTERESTS: PUTIN

Sun 26 February 2023:

Russia is standing against a new world order shaped only in the interests of the US, according to President Vladimir Putin.

“What are we against? Against the fact that the new world that is taking shape is built only in the interests of one country, in this case the US,” Putin said in an interview with Rossiya-1 broadcast on Sunday.

“They want to do just that, I assure you, everyone understands this,” he added.

Putin said some countries are extremely dependent on Washington both economically and militarily, adding that they believe fighting Russia is in line with US interests.

“Even the satellites (US allies) are included in this joint fight, but nevertheless, they are perfectly aware that everything that the US does is in line with their selfish interests only. Often it does not even correspond to the interests of their so-called allies,” he said.

Putin said he has no doubts that Russia’s stance for a multipolar world will prevail in the end.

On the Ukraine conflict, he said NATO and the West are involved in the war because they supply weapons to Kyiv.

He said Moscow needs to take into account the nuclear arsenal of the entire West.

“Amid today’s conditions, as all leading NATO countries have announced our strategic defeat as their key goal … how can we not consider their nuclear potential?” he asserted.

Putin said the West will only include Russia in its “so-called family of civilized peoples” after breaking the country into separate parts.

“What for? For ordering those parts around and putting them under their control,” he added.

Supplying Arms to Kiev

Supplies of weapons to Ukraine by the NATO bloc may be considered the participation in the conflict since the alliance receives no payments for it, which means the West becomes a companion in Kiev’s crimes, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

“They supply arms worth tens of billions of dollars to Ukraine. This is the participation in a way. Why? Because it is not simply military-technical cooperation, since they do not receive money for it,” Putin stated in an interview for the “Moscow. Kremlin. Putin” program on Rossiya-1 TV channel aired on Sunday, TASS reported.

He added that “those arms are delivered unilaterally, which means in a way, at least indirect, but still the participation in the Kiev regime’s crimes”.

“Amid today’s conditions, as all leading NATO countries have announced our strategic defeat as their key goal for making our people suffer as they put it, <…> how cannot we consider their nuclear potential amid this environment?” he continued.

The West has only one goal of liquidating the Russian Federation, the Russian president said.

“They have one goal of liquidating the former Soviet Union and its main part, the Russian Federation,” he added.
