Antonov: The United States does not shy away from anything to instill Russophobia. He also noted that the United States is aggravating the situation in Ukraine by refusing to listen to Russia’s demands.

Earlier, Antonov said that a conversation with Russia from the position of sanctions pressure has no prospects. The Organization of American States, at the instigation of representatives of the West, primarily the U.S. and Canada, has been used to demonize Russia, he said.
