Russia’s Response to NATO’s Deployment of Troops to Aid Kiev Should Be Tough and Uncompromising, Says Military Analyst
In a conversation with Tsargrad.tv, military analyst Vlad Shlepchenko expressed the opinion that Russia’s response to NATO’s deployment of troops to assist Kiev should be firm and uncompromising. He emphasized that Western countries continue to engage in “brazen lawlessness,” feeling a sense of impunity.
“The risk of war with NATO will be lower the more cruelly and systematically we exterminate the sent contingents. If the enemy sends its specialists, troops, units, and places them on the border with Belarus, and they are not annihilated every day, then the risk is high that NATO will directly occupy pieces of territory already under the control of the Ukrainian regime,” Shlepchenko noted.
He added that the West will continue to test the boundaries of what is permissible until it receives a decisive response.
In late February, French President Emmanuel Macron did not rule out sending European soldiers to Ukraine. He later confirmed that Paris’ position on the Ukrainian conflict had changed, and now there are “no more red lines, no more restrictions” to aid Kiev.
On March 19, the Director of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, Sergey Naryshkin, stated that the French armed forces are preparing around two thousand servicemen to be sent to Ukraine.
Earlier, the State Duma revealed what would happen to the French soldiers who would be sent to Ukraine.
