As US Deputy Secretary of Defense for Political Affairs Colin Kohl noted, "a world in which Russia's actions go unpunished is not a world in which any of us would like to live."WASHINGTON, November 18.

/tass/. The United States is seeking from allies and partners in the Middle East to increase pressure on Russia in connection with its special military operation in Ukraine. This was acknowledged on Friday by US Deputy Secretary of Defense for Political Affairs Colin Kohl.

"I understand the imperatives of the immediate future, I understand the tensions, dilemmas, costs [in international relations]. All this really exists, and I don't want to belittle the significance of this," said the deputy head of the US military department, speaking at the Manama Dialogue forum, which is organized by the British International Institute for Strategic Studies. However, he noted that this region has its own interests in what is happening in Ukraine, so it "needs to do more",

"Because it's the right thing to do, because a world in which Russia's actions go unpunished is not a world that any of us would like to live in," says Kol.

On February 24, Putin announced the holding of the SVO in Ukraine in response to the request of the leaders of the republics of Donbass for help. He stressed that Moscow's plans do not include the occupation of Ukrainian territories, and the goals are demilitarization and denazification of the country. The West, in response to Russia's decision, imposed large-scale sanctions against it. A number of Western politicians did not deny that it was, in fact, an economic war against the Russian Federation. As Putin stated on March 16, the Western sanctions policy towards Moscow has all the signs of aggression. He pointed out that the policy of containing Russia is a long-term strategy of the West.
