The official spokeswoman for Russia’s Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova provided a clear and targeted history lesson yesterday, both on the blood-sucking character of British imperialism, and the racialist, Nazi infection still plaguing the world, 80 years after the Allied victory over Hitler’s regime.
Zakharova told RT in a Sept. 3 interview: “Britain has a history of aggressive colonialism and imperialism toward resource-rich countries. Ukraine holds significant potential in this regard, and Britain views it as a means of enrichment—or rather a lifeline given the current state of Western European economies... London perceives Ukraine as merely a feeding trough, both now and in the future, from which it can extract essentially free minerals and refine them.” Hence, Kiev, rather than acting in the interests of its citizens, takes directives from “NATO, Western European elites, and local self-interested groups.” She explained that, with a truly democratic and sovereign Ukraine, its leaders would, as RT put it, “prioritize national interests and pursue policies that foster domestic peace, good relations with neighbors, and prosperity rather than ceding mineral wealth to Western corporations.”
Such a policy had also characterized Washington, but U.S. President Donald Trump deserves credit for his personal courage in ending the “incendiary” and “destructive” course of Biden’s administration, Zakharova stated.
