RT: Kremlin identifies ‘red line’ in NATO-Russia relations
President Vladimir Putin’s spokesperson has explained how NATO created the situation which Russia ‘couldn’t tolerate any more’
NATO’s “gradual invasion” into Ukraine has brought the US-led bloc right to Moscow’s “red line,” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told CNN.
He said the situation poses an imminent threat to the European security as a whole. Peskov on Sunday cited the documented western promises, which, he noted, have never been “fixed in a legally binding way,” guaranteeing that NATO would not expand further eastwards into the former Soviet bloc.
In contrast to these promises, over the past few years NATO’s employed its “open-door” policy to absorb several countries of the former Warsaw Pact. Moscow is drawing the line on this expansion in Russia’s next-door neighbor Ukraine, Peskov told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria in an interview aired on Sunday, as he explained the Kremlin’s position in detail.
“First, there were just words but with time we have seen the gradual invasion of NATO into Ukrainian territory, with its infrastructure, with its instructors, with supplies of defensive and offensive weapons, teaching Ukrainian military and so on,” Peskov said.
