Russian Ambassador to the US: Washington has never recognized the nature of the Ukraine conflict
(Baonghean.vn) - The Russian Ambassador to the US called on Washington to cooperate with Moscow to solve global problems, instead of trying to defeat Russia.
In a statement, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov commented on US President Joe Biden's interview with CBS, and the argument that Washington is questioning the success of Russia's special military operation in Ukraine, Ria Novosti reported.
“All the enthusiasm must be focused on the main issues, including: maintaining global strategic stability, strengthening the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, building a new international security architecture, fighting terrorism, combating climate change. And in all these areas, we have accumulated significant experience and capabilities. Most of all, there is a beneficial experience of bilateral cooperation. It would be a pity to ignore this and not use it for the benefit of humanity. The responsibility for this lies entirely with the US administration,” said Ambassador Antonov.
According to Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov, the United States has never recognized the nature and causes of the Ukrainian conflict.
“They do not understand that the attempt to pit two brotherly peoples against each other through the hands of American political strategists will not lead to anything good,” Ambassador Antonov affirmed.
According to him, all attempts by the Western collective to “cause strategic defeat to Russia”, and even more so, attempts to defeat Russian soldiers on the battlefield, are doomed to failure. Because, according to him, this has been confirmed and proven by many historical events.
“Moreover, despite all the hawkish approaches of American politicians, it is time for them to realize: Russia will not disappear from the world map. From that, we must think of ways to coexist,” Ambassador Antonov emphasized.
Regarding the US's stance on "attacks against Russian political leaders", Ambassador Antonov said it was "unacceptable and inappropriate".
“We may have different views. But it is unacceptable to stoop to the level of promoting Russophobia, which has been growing strongly in the United States,” Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov said.
