“T“Every NATO cannot fail to understand that Russia has no reason, no interest, neither geopolitical, economic, political nor military in fighting with the NATO countries”, he said in statements to the program “Moscow. Kremlin. Putin.”
Putin stressed that this includes the United States, which he called “the sole owner of NATO”, since the military bloc is “his backyard”.
“We do not have territorial disputes with them, nor do we have any desire to spoil relations with them”, he stressed, statements that were published on Telegram by Pavel Zarubin, the program’s presenter.
The Kremlin is interested “in developing relations” with these countries, which supported Ukraine in its war with Russia from the beginning.
Putin called US President Joe Biden’s accusations that Russia is preparing to attack the Atlantic Alliance “sovereign nonsense”.
“I think President Biden also understands that this is just a figure of speech to justify his erratic policy towards Russia,” he said.
Looking back, Putin accused the West of seeking the disintegration of the Russian Federation following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
In this way, Russia “will have no weight or voice and will not be able to defend its national interests as the united Russian State does”, he stated.
“They will have to find common ground with us, as they will have to take us into account”, insisted the Russian leader, who guarantees that the world is changing and that the West is no longer the only hegemonic power.
He also admitted to having been guilty of “naivety” in the first years of his term at the head of the Kremlin, thinking that the former enemies of the USSR would understand that Russia is another country, that the “ideological antagonism” was over and that it was necessary to renounce politics of “confrontation”.
Putin, who has been in power since 2000 and who will today receive the support of the Kremlin party for his bid for re-election in the 2024 presidential elections, assured this week, in his first major press conference after the war, that there will be no peace in Ukraine until Russia achieves the goals it set in February 2022.
