Maria Zakharova called the Russian factor the main component of the current US-Ukrainian relations
TASS reported that Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday on air on Channel One that Ukraine’s call to deploy US air defenses on its territory proves the provocative nature of Kiev’s policy in the region and towards Russia.
“This, it seems to me, is proof in this case <…> of Ukraine’s provocative policy both in the region and against Russia. This is a proof of US intentions with regard to building relations with the same Ukraine, when the centre of these relations is the Russian factor”, – she said.
