SUMMARY
The USA is trying to make Ukraine a "springboard of aggression" against Russia.
The USA is planning to push Russia and Ukraine into an open confrontation.
Everything that is happening now falls within the framework of the Americans' strategy to turn Ukraine into a bridgehead of aggression against Russia.
The whole of Europe will be drawn into the conflict between Russia and Ukraine by the US-British strategy.
RESPONSE
Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative alleging that Ukraine is a "springboard of aggression" against Russia and that the West is pushing Ukraine towards a war with Russia. By accusing the West and Ukraine, these narratives aim to deflect any Russian blame for this situation and the events that led to it.
Neither the US, nor the UK, are pushing Ukraine to escalation in Donbas. This disinformation is used to distract attention from a renewed build-up of Russian armed forces along the Ukrainian borders in April 2021 which has left additional significant Russian heavy armament and equipment near the Ukrainian borders. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasised many times that Ukraine is not interested in resuming the conflict in Donbas. Ukraine, according to Zelenskyy, is committed to the implementation of the Minsk agreements.
Since 2014, the pro-Kremlin media have repeatedly accused Ukraine of mass destruction/killing/genocide of the Russian minority in Donbas. Various human rights missions failed to find any evidence to these claims. Read more here.
Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity continue to be violated by the Russian armed forces. The most recent Russian military build up near the Ukrainian borders is accompanied by renewed disinformation attacks against Ukraine.
