Russia - Medvedev: NATO and the US did not learn the lesson of 2008 well

Russia (bbabo.net), - Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev believes that the United States and NATO did not learn the lesson well from the recognition of the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia in 2008. Then, according to him, by using military force and political will, Russia helped save the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and taught NATO, the United States an object lesson, "everyone who had aggressive intentions against Russian citizens."

"However, NATO did not master it well, and continued to cynically and unceremoniously approach Russia's borders, expanding the circle of potential members of the alliance," the deputy head of the Security Council emphasized. The West helped Kiev sabotage the Minsk agreements, completely freeing the hands of nationalists and a weak government headed by the current president of Ukraine, he added.
