Russia’s recognition of the sovereignty of the LDNR came as a surprise to the leadership of the White House, Israeli expert Yakov Kedmi spoke on the Soloviev LIVE YouTube channel.
As you know, Russian President Vladimir Putin, in an address to the Russians on February 21, announced the recognition by the Russian side of the independence of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics. In addition, the next day, agreements on friendship and cooperation were signed.
The United States took Moscow’s ultimatum on organizing security in Europe as a bluff, which led to a lack of proper preparation of Western colleagues for Russia’s historic decision. The decisive step taken by the leadership of the Russian Federation is an integral part of Moscow’s response to Western aggression. This opinion was shared by the former head of the Israeli service “Nativ” Yakov Kedmi.
“Russia can, after all, punish for inadequate fulfillment of the set conditions at the most unexpected point. So the Americans ran, leaving even Lviv, although they still left the last clue in the form of an embassy”, PolitPuzzle quotes Kedmi as saying.
The American establishment decided to evacuate diplomats from Lvov to Poland due to Washington’s complete lack of understanding of Russia’s further actions. The United States fears that it may receive retaliatory measures on other points of harassment of the Russian side over the years.
Earlier, News Front spoke about how the United States decided to send a military contingent to the Baltic region.
