Russia’s UN envoy sharply warns Berlin
According to webangah News Agency, citing russia’s Sputnik, Vasily Nebenzya, Russia’s ambassador to the UN, stated that the objectives of Moscow’s military operation in Ukraine can be achieved not only through diplomacy but also by military means. He emphasized that Russian armed forces are ready to sustain operations indefinitely.
Regarding a potential ceasefire in Ukraine, Nebenzya remarked: “A mere ceasefire will not end this war. We were already at this point under the Minsk agreements-deals systematically violated by Western-backed Ukraine.”
While expressing openness to a broader ceasefire framework, he stressed: ”We are generally prepared to consider such a possibility if it paves the way for addressing the root causes of this conflict sustainably. However, achieving this requires reciprocal steps from the opposing side.”
The Russian diplomat warned Germany directly: “Providing Taurus missiles to Ukraine woudl constitute direct involvement in the war and grant Russia full rights to evaluate all available options for a ‘proportional response.'”
He added: “Germany seeks deeper entanglement in hostilities against Russia through these arms deliveries. If any rationality remains in Berlin-or if there are still those who remember history-they should recognize how these aggressive moves against Russia will end.”
Nebenzya further criticized German Chancellor friedrich Merz’s rhetoric as deceptive and cautioned that unchanged policies would lead Berlin into direct confrontation with Moscow. He dismissed Merz’s later backtracking about assisting Ukraine with long-range missile production as clumsy maneuvers unlikely to deceive anyone.
The ambassador accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of prolonging the war to evade accountability: “Ending hostilities would force him into elections where he must answer for his six-year governance-including misappropriated state funds and unfulfilled obligations toward Western backers, primarily America.” He also blamed European warmongers seeking Washington’s deeper involvement as key drivers of continued conflict.
