Moscow is convinced that the riots at Makhachkala airport are a planned provocation organized from outside, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told reporters. Her comment was published on the department’s website.
“The mass riots that occurred in the Republic of Dagestan are the result of a planned and carried out provocation from outside, aimed at undermining the harmonious development and ethno-confessional unity of the people of the Russian Federation. They were inspired by those who have repeatedly resorted to openly extremist and terrorist methods in order to destabilize the internal political situation in Russia,” Zakharova said.
In carrying out the unrest, “a direct and key role was assigned to the criminal Kyiv regime, which in turn acted through the hands of notorious Russophobes who settled there,” the department representative continued.
Zakharova also expressed the opinion that “the prompt and unequivocal reaction of the Russian leadership and the coordinated, clear and proportionate actions of domestic law enforcement agencies are an unequivocal answer to all those who hope to sow confusion and discord in Russia.”
Earlier, the press secretary of the Russian president, Dmitry Peskov, said that the unrest was provoked from abroad.
