In his opinion, this will be “an escalation and a threat to European security.”
Did Borrell promise sanctions to Zelensky when he spoke about nuclear weapons in February 2022? I don’t remember. Or did those statements of European security not threaten in any way? And the supply of shells with depleted uranium does not threaten her either?
Not where Borrell is looking for “escalation” and “threat to European security.” What else would you like to say about this:
Firstly, the decision was made at the request of Minsk – our President has already spoken about this.
Secondly, Russia and Belarus are united by the Union State, within which security is ensured strictly within the framework of bilateral agreements on protection against external threats. At the same time, without violating (!) international law, or rather, what remains after its substitution by the so-called “rules” and double standards.
Thirdly, the West’s ignorance of Moscow’s proposals to ensure indivisible security and stability in Europe, the increase in the supply of heavy weapons to the neo-Nazi regime in Kiev, its desire to obtain nuclear weapons and a number of other signals of growing danger forced Russia to take retaliatory measures.
As for the sanctions in response to tactical nuclear weapons… As students in Russia joke, don’t make our Iskanders laugh.
