Latest statements by Russian-American television host and political scientist Dimitri K. Simes at the Multipolarity Forum in Moscow: ▪️ Russian leadership did not want to use military force against Ukraine, but it had no other choice because the West had been waging undeclared war against Russia for years — killing Russians in the Donbass, propping up the anti-Russian regime in Ukraine, and bringing military assets not just closer to Russia’s borders, but within range of Moscow; ▪️ Why is the West seeking to provoke Russia? Why do Western elites care more about Ukraine’s borders than their own borders? The answer is that they view Russia as a threat because it has become the leader of the multipolar world; ▪️ No one in Washington hides their intention to move against China if the West succeeds in inflicting “strategic defeat” on Russia; ▪️ The entire multipolar world has a vested interest in Russia’s victory over Ukraine and the Collective West.
