Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that one of Russia’s goals, the “demilitarization” of Ukraine, had been “largely achieved.” He added, in line with the propaganda narrative of the Russian regime, that NATO countries, led by the United States, “are increasingly involved in this conflict” and “have become its party”. “This forces Russia to take more decisive measures to ensure the security of the people of Donbass and the Russian Federation,” Peskov said.
Dmitry Peskov in an interview with RT Arabic said that at the beginning of the “special military operation” – how Russia he calls his aggression na Ukraine – this country was “highly militarized”.
– In fact, this goal (in the form of “demilitarization” – ed.) has been largely achieved. Ukraine is using less and less of its weapons and more and more weapons systems supplied by Western countries, quotes Peskov’s words from the Ukrinform agency.
