Ushakov said that the hysteria about Russia's "invasion" of Ukraine has reached its climax

“The escalation around the topic of the invasion was coordinated, and the hysteria reached its climax,” he said.

Earlier, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that the United States and Great Britain invented the “Russian threat” in order to further their “heroic” fight against it and “loudly declare victory.”

On February 7, Director of the Department for Non-Proliferation and Arms Control of the Russian Foreign Ministry Vladimir Yermakov said that Western countries need to stop the unfounded anti-Russian hysteria.
