“Today is not a war in Ukraine, as you say.
This is a proxy war of the collective West with Russia.
It was as if you were just waiting for this moment to start the flywheel of repression against Russia, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.
According to Nebenzi, the world war is going on in the economic sphere, and the West was preparing for it in advance.
“Because the speed with which this flywheel was launched leaves no doubt that you were preparing for this in advance and long before,” he added.
The Russian permanent representative stressed that by pumping weapons to Ukraine, Western countries are turning it into a springboard for the battle with Russia.
The head of the department for non-proliferation and arms control of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Vladimir Yermakov, warned in an interview with TASS earlier that the West's line of waging proxy wars against Russia is fraught with serious consequences.
