According to Deputy Head of Russian MFA Sergei Ryabkov, the Russian Federation is ready for an armed conflict with NATO since Moscow can no longer establish relations with the Alliance.
The Russian Federation is considering the possibility of a war with NATO
Russian propagandists asked Deputy Sergei Lavrov whether an armed conflict between Russia and NATO could be expected in the future.
Ryabkov began to claim that the development of events depends on the North Atlantic Alliance.
Totally and completely the choice is on NATO's side. We are ready, as it has already been demonstrated, to protect our national interests with all the means at our disposal, the Russian diplomat cynically said.
In addition, the representative of the Russian MFA began to lie about the fact that NATO "endlessly encroaches" on the interests of Russia.
Sergei Ryabkov also complains about some phantom people who continue to test the strength of the aggressor country.
They must have believed that there are no limits to their own rate-raising game, but they may be among those who lose completely on this ground, Lavrov's deputy added.
Russia does not believe in restoring relations with the Alliance
According to the Russian diplomat, there are practically no chances that ties between Russia and NATO will be fixed in one form or another in the foreseeable future.
This is excluded for reasons of both principle and practical nature. If someone in the West thinks that we need these relations, that we will at some point come and ask for their restoration, then this is the biggest mistake, Ryabkov claims.
He also cynically noted that official Moscow was ready to negotiate "only on an equal and mutually respectful basis."
And even now against the background of what is happening, I can't even imagine the situation and the context in which this is possible, the scandalous Russian diplomat concluded.
