This Saturday, Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin will keep a telephone conversation when the conflict between Russia and Ukraine reaches its most tense point yet. This has been confirmed by the Kremlin spokesman, Dmitri Peskov, who confesses that this request comes from the United States.
“Tomorrow night, Moscow time, the two presidents plan to speak“, Peskov said this Friday to the Russian agency Interfax. In addition, throughout the weekend it is also expected that Emmanuel Macron also call Putin, news that comes after the confirmation that the French president refused to undergo a PCR in Russia for fear that they would obtain their DNA.
On the other hand, the Russian Foreign Ministry has accused Washington of carrying out a “large-scale disinformation campaign” about a possible Russian invasion of Ukraine. “In late 2021 and early 2022, the global information space faced a media campaign unprecedented in its scale and sophistication, the goal of which is to convince the world community that the Russian Federation is preparing an invasion of the territory of Ukraine,” says a statement.
The Russian ambassador to the United States, Anatoly Antonovhas also responded to the United States National Security Adviser, Jake Sullivan, who stated that the Russian invasion of Ukraine could take place at any time, “even during the Olympics.”
“They are not supported by any evidence. Washington simply continues to ‘waste’ based on certain intelligence, the details of which are not given,” Antonov argues.
