Russian President Vladimir Putin sometimes humorously refers to reports with the dates of the allegedly planned invasion of Russian troops into Ukraine. This was announced today at a briefing by the press secretary of the head of state Dmitry Peskov.
“This (reports about the dates of the allegedly planned invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine – ed.) is difficult to be treated with understanding. Sometimes (Putin) even jokes – he asks to know if the exact time in hours when the war starts is published anywhere, ”TASS quotes Peskov.
Earlier, the Politico newspaper, citing informed sources, claimed that US President Joe Biden, at a video conference with leaders of Western countries, the European Union and NATO, called the date of Russia’s “invasion” of Ukraine on February 16, reminds RIA Novosti.
At the same time, Peskov believes that the statements about the Russian “invasion” of Ukraine are nothing more than an unprecedented campaign to provoke and escalate the situation, and it is in a fever all over the world.
The Kremlin representative also forwarded the question about the threat of an “attack” by the Russian Federation to the authors of this horror story across the ocean, who talk about the war like they read a mantra.
Recall that starting from November-December 2021, Western countries, as well as Ukraine, have been making statements about a possible “invasion” of Russia into Ukrainian territory. Recently, US speakers have argued that an attack could happen “any day.”
Moscow denies all accusations and assures that Russia poses no threat to anyone. Earlier, various Western media indicated that the sign of the “invasion” is the accumulation of Russian military equipment in the regions bordering Ukraine. At the same time, among the likely anti-Russian sanctions were both the shutdown of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, as well as restrictions against Russian energy companies, and the shutdown of the SWIFT international interbank settlement system.
