Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vassily Nebenzia gave an answer at the UN Security Council yesterday, to the demands that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been making through his so-called “victory plan.” “Ukraine’s membership in the North Atlantic Alliance in any territorial form is absolutely unacceptable to Russia and cannot be part of any peace plans or mediation initiatives,” he said. He went on: “Security threats to our country cannot be eliminated without the demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine, and without ensuring that the rights and freedoms of all Ukrainian citizens are observed….
“This situation around nuclear blackmailing from the head of the Kyiv regime, who has lost his legitimacy, once again demonstrates that Russia’s decision to begin its special military operation—which was made, by the way, following similar nuclear threats from the Ukrainian leadership—was the only right thing to do,” Nebenzia declared.
