Director of the Foreign Intelligence Service Sergei Naryshkin said that Poland and the Baltic States would be the first to suffer in case of NATO aggression. He said this in Minsk, where he had a meeting with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.
“They [Poles and the Baltics] should understand, but they do not yet realize that in case of aggression on the part of the North Atlantic Alliance against the Union State, the damage will be inflicted, of course, on the entire NATO bloc, but to a greater extent the first to suffer will be the carriers of such ideas among the political circles of Poland and the Baltic countries,” TASS quoted the official as saying.
According to Naryshkin, “Poland does not realize that their military activity near the borders of the Union State has become a factor in the acute situation in Europe.”
Naryshkin also repeated Russia’s previously outlined conditions for a truce with Ukraine: its nuclear-free, neutral status, “demilitarization and denazification, abolition of all discriminatory laws that were adopted after the 2014 coup d’état,” as well as recognition of Russia’s current territorial borders.
And they repeat the same impossible demands for Ukraine while threatening NATO members? This doesn’t sound like a path to peace or stability. Just more threats and aggression. Ukraine needs support! 🇺🇦
