Russia warned on Thursday that countries that supply arms to Ukraine, among which it mentioned Slovakia, create “direct problems” themselves.
“If this decision is taken, and this concerns not only Slovakia, but also other countries, they create problems for themselves... They create direct problems for themselves with their own hands,” said the spokeswoman for Russian diplomacy, Maria Zakharova.
The Russian diplomat thus commented on press reports that Bratislava had authorized the sending to Ukraine of Soviet-produced anti-aircraft missile systems in statements to the Soloviov.Live YouTube channel.
In addition, in recent hours the US government announced that it will deliver long-range defence missiles and Switchblade armed drones to Ukraine, allowing Kiev forces to better defend themselves against Russian aircraft and shielding themselves at a distance.
On the other hand, Zakharova indicated that at present “you cannot talk about an active negotiating process” with the West, there are only “certain contacts on certain problems that arise”.
He evaded commenting on the statements of Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau, who stated that Poland could replace Russia in the G20. “I don't want to comment on all these hypothetical statements, because it doesn't make sense or is it convenient, it's what they would like. If it depended on their will on Earth, they would be left alone,” the spokeswoman said.
He also explained that Russia's decision to leave the Council of Europe with the restriction of its rights in the organization. “They (the Council of Europe) restricted our rights as members of this organization, they simply limited our rights: to be with violated rights, to pay dues, not to be able to defend our point of view... no one wants to be the boy or the girl of whipping,” Zakharova said.
He reported that the website of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as well as those of other state institutions, has been subjected to DoS (denial of service) attacks 24 hours a day in the last two weeks.
On February 24, the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, launched a “special military operation” in Ukraine with the aim of “demilitarizing and denazifying” the neighboring country, a campaign condemned by the international community and which has led to the exodus of more than 3 million refugees.
