Russia’s Foreign Ministry says Ukraine has kept itself in thrall to the West for decades – Russian Politics and Diplomacy

MOSCOW, November 2. /TASS/. Ukraine is not just in debt to the West, it is actually in captivity, and this will last for decades, Maria Zakharova, the official spokesperson of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said in a special online briefing.

“It cannot even be said that Ukraine has ‘too much credit’ or is ‘over-dependent on loans’. Ukraine has been in captivity for decades. It pays its debt with its own citizens, with subsoil given to GMO for all kinds of experiments, or simply with the export of land.” he said.

The diplomat said, “Future generations will have to pay for the West’s crimes with their money and resources in the first place.” he said.

He noted that Ukraine “is considered a breadbasket.” “It was. Now it is either being taken under control or has already been taken under control – either sold directly to Western multinationals or through lending,” Zakharova added.
