The tenth anniversary of the coup in Ukraine and its consequences

Russian Ambassador to Iran Alexei Dedov

What is happening in Ukraine today is the result of the policy of putting different countries and nations against each other and inciting conflict between countries. This is the policy followed by the Western countries led by the Anglo-Saxons. From their point of view, Ukraine has always been viewed as an arena for confrontation with Russia.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, America and its satellites declared the winner of the “Cold War” and ignored their commitments and started moving towards the development of NATO. Russia accepted the expansion of NATO if the alliance commits not to deploy its military forces on the territory of new members. On the other hand, the leaders of NATO deceived Russia and deployed large military groups of forces equipped with modern weapons on the territory of new members and right on the borders of Russia.

In 2008, at the NATO Summit in Bucharest, it was announced that NATO’s doors are open to Ukraine and Georgia. In February 2014, a Western-originated coup occurred in Ukraine. Those who did not accept the result of this coup were labeled as terrorists and “operations” were started against them. In this disaster, brutal events took place, such as the burning of 48 civilians in the trade union house in Odessa and the bombing of Luhansk and other Donbas cities by military planes. Following these events, the People’s Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk declared independence, but at that time it was also possible to reach an agreement.

Russia seeks cooperation ways to overcome this crisis continued We convinced Donbas not to stop negotiations. As a result, after one year of the coup, the agreements were signed in February 2015 in Minsk. Later, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and French President Francois Hollande, who signed these agreements with Vladimir Putin, shamelessly and even proudly announced that they did not want to implement these agreements. They announced that they needed time to arm Ukraine against Russia, which itself was an “amazing” admission. In this way, the West has made Ukraine a plaything of its own and uses Ukraine in every sense to contain Russia and, as they say now, to impose a “strategic defeat” on Russia.

Kyiv authorities are known international beggars and there is nothing left of Ukraine’s independence. Even before the February 2014 coup, from the beginning of the Maidan events, and perhaps before that, American and British advisers were present in most institutions (including the Ukrainian Security Service). Even now, the tense presence of these foreign advisers and their use to conspire against Russia is a normal thing for Ukraine, and no one is surprised by it. This is the result of what Ukraine has received from the “flattery” of the West and its mindless desire to integrate into its political and economic system.

There is no doubt that the West has declared war on Russia. Is. They do not hide this. Although they have announced that they are only arming Ukraine and it is Ukraine that is fighting, but everyone understands that this is a lie. Western military advisers supervise the implementation of war plans and the use of weapons donated by the West by the General Staff of the Ukrainian Army and help the Ukrainian forces to mark the targets.

According to our data The European Union’s foreign policy service has given recommendations to Ukraine, according to which Ukraine cannot win with the methods it is currently using in the war, and this country will fail. Therefore, this country should be given weapons with a longer range to target the “heart” of Russia. Based on this, Europe, which is trying to defeat Russia as quickly as possible, is basically serving the interests of the United States of America.

Now the West is trying to deceive the majority of the world’s countries and lead them to support Zelenskiy’s “peace formula”. The essence of this peace is that Russia must surrender; Go back to the 1991 borders and have the Russian authorities go to court and pay compensation. Everyone knows that this plan is completely “absurd” and in other words a stupid idea. Based on the mentioned points, the following apparently neutral items have been added to this peace formula, which are: food security, energy security, nuclear security, exchange of prisoners and humanitarian issues. There are 10 ingredients in this formula, half of which are apparently neutral.

It is clear that these proposals are considered as a single package. When they bring the countries of the global south and the global east to the meetings that are organized to advance this so-called “peace formula”, these countries understand that this formula cannot be implemented and without the presence and consideration of Russia’s views on the discussion on Any peace formula is completely useless. However, the countries present in such meetings should support food security and sign clause “one”. The name of this deceitful game of the Westerners is nothing but fraud!

These approaches, which are proposed in the form of a peace formula by the leaders of Ukraine and their Western supporters, are not taken seriously from the point of view of diplomacy. and for the West to say that this is the only way forward, it is a shame. Russian President Vladimir Putin said: “The West must accept that the path it has taken is wrong and failed.” Let the West look for a way out of this quagmire without losing its image. Vladimir Putin emphasized: “The West must return to the art of diplomacy, and the art of diplomacy, like the art of politics, is the art of compromise.”

All this requires the recognition of the legitimacy of our demands The non-aligned status for Ukraine is the refusal of any NATO advance, the refusal to militarize Ukraine as a threat to the Russian Federation, and an end to the Nazi policy of legally and physically erasing Russian and Russian-speaking citizens from the territory of Ukraine.

Even before the start of the special military operation in November 2021 and before the West rejected Russia’s initiative on European security, a reporter asked Vladimir Zelensky during a conversation how he felt about the people living in in Donbass. Zelensky thoughtfully and artistically replied that there is a series of humans and a series of “species”. Earlier, he said that if someone lives in Ukraine and belongs to Russian culture and civilization, then for the sake of your children and grandchildren, let them “get lost” in Russia!

It is noteworthy that in the background of the start of special military operations, Ukraine filed a complaint against Russia in the International Court of Justice claiming that Russia violated the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. The International Court of Justice ended years of debate and ruled in late January 2024 that Russia had not violated any conventions. In addition, the aforementioned court rejected Ukraine’s claim regarding their fight against terrorist regimes in Donetsk and Luhansk. Finally, it can be said that the entire ideological foundation of the “anti-terrorist operation” that Kiev had started after the coup and then continued against the Minsk agreements has been destroyed.
