There are no signs of a decrease in the level of escalation of the conflict between Moscow and the West in the foreseeable future, the observers of the Global Times newspaper notedBEIJING, September 26.
/tass/. Attempts by the American authorities to split Russia and spread their influence in the Eurasian space will turn into the worst-case scenario for an armed conflict in Ukraine. This point of view was expressed on Monday by political observers of the Chinese newspaper Global Times.
"Some strategists of the United States really want to split the Russian Federation in order to eliminate the huge risk that, in their opinion, it poses," the publication quotes the opinion of the director of the Institute of International Relations at the People's University of China (Beijing) Wang Yiwei. He clarified that the leadership of the European Union in this case adheres to a different position, "seeking only to change Russia."
The expert supported the criticism of the United States, which on September 24, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov made at the general political discussion of the 77th session of the UN General Assembly.
According to Chinese political analysts interviewed by Global Times, there are no signs of a decrease in the level of escalation of the conflict between Moscow and the West in the foreseeable future and "the worst scenario should be expected, since Washington's goal is obvious - to crush Russia." "The Russian Federation has nuclear weapons. Who, if there is one, will want to compromise?" - the newspaper quotes a Beijing political commentator who wished not to disclose his name.
Earlier, Sergey Lavrov said that all situations in which Russia can use a nuclear arsenal are clearly outlined in its military doctrine. The Russian Foreign Minister drew attention to the fact that Moscow did not raise this topic, while Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky announced Kiev's plans to obtain such weapons of mass destruction even before the start of the special operation. The Russian diplomat also pointed out the unacceptability of Washington's attempts to "turn the whole globe into its "backyard".
