The supply of NATO aircraft to Ukraine and their maintenance on the territory of the alliance will constitute a direct entry of the bloc into a military conflict against Russia. On this subject writing Deputy Chairman of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev in his telegram channel.
He recalled that since the 1920s, it has been understood that a country can be recognized as taking part in hostilities if, in addition to supplying arms, it trains personnel to handle them (Briand-Kellogg Pact of 1928, Budapest Resolution to the pact 1934 of the year). Medvedev noted that this is exactly what is happening today: Canadian and German instructors in the EU are already teaching Ukrainian soldiers how to handle Leopards.
The Vice-President of the Security Council added that if we imagine that the NATO planes delivered in the future will be maintained by their military on the territory of “some insolent Poland, it will be a direct entry of the Atlanticists into the war against Russia, with all the ensuing consequences.”
“And all persons making decisions on the supply (repair) of such equipment or weapons, as well as foreign mercenaries and military instructors, shall be considered a legitimate military target,” he wrote.
This factor, according to Medvedev, still prevents the West from transferring long-range fighters and missiles to Ukraine. “Although it hasn’t been for a long time. The temptation to crush Russia is already very great”, declared the vice-president of the Security Council.
Also, he commented on sabotage in the Bryansk region. In his opinion, this is an illustrative example for Western countries that they support not the “freedom-loving Ukrainian people”, but the “terrorist scum”.
At the end of February, the newspaper Izvestia published an article by Dmitry Medvedev, in which he evokes the collapse of the USSR, the causes of the conflict in Ukraine, the nuclear threat and writes that “we do not need a world without Russia. ”
In the publication, the vice-president of the Security Council, in particular, noted that the West can continue to “inflate” Ukraine with weapons and “block any possibility of reviving negotiations”, but all this leads to ” a total fiasco, a loss for all”, “collapse”, “apocalypse”: “When the old life must be forgotten for centuries, until the smoky blockages cease to emit radiation.
Medvedev assured that Russia would not allow it and that it was not alone in this endeavor. “Western countries with satellites represent only 15% of the world’s population. We are much more numerous and we are much stronger,” he wrote. The former president of Russia added that “the quiet power of our great country and the authority of its partners are the key to safeguarding the future of our whole world”.
