In fact, Mr. Kozenko said, there is evidence that NATO secretly colluded with the Ukrainian government… to plan to set up a military base in Crimea. But thanks to coordinated moves, including Russia’s actions in Crimea, NATO has suffered a complete defeat.
At the same time, the MP noted that today the threat of aggression from NATO is increasing. And this is a real threat not only to Russia, but also to peacekeeping around the world.
"The North Atlantic Alliance does not hide its plans to strengthen its military bases on the eastern borders of Europe. It is also involved in the war in Donbass... And today, if necessary, Russia is fully capable of responding appropriately to possible provocations from NATO, as well as from its puppets," the politician said.
