Russia (bbabo.net) - The transition of the West to the "red lines" designated by Moscow is fraught with a repetition of the Caribbean crisis, said Dmitry Kiselev, general director of the Rossiya Segodnya news agency and the host of the Vesti Nedeli program on the Russia 1 channel. He said this, commenting on the situation around Ukraine, on the air of the BBC television and radio corporation.

“If we are talking about Ukraine’s accession to NATO or the military development of the territory of Ukraine, then we will put our pistol barrel to the temple of the United States,” Kiselev said. “We have a military-technical capability, Russia has the best weapon in the world, hypersonic .. With the same flight time as American weapons or British weapons will have from the territory of Ukraine to Moscow, to the territory of Russia. This will be the situation of the Cuban missile crisis, but with a different flight time. "

He stressed that Russia is not interested in aggravating the situation and that "this will be the choice of the West."

We will remind that earlier the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Alexander Grushko, who deals with Russia's relations with Europe, said in an interview what exactly Moscow expects from the plan to end NATO's expansion to the east, proposed to Washington.

"If our concerns are ignored, and NATO countries are not ready to take the path of military restraint, then, of course, we will have to respond with the means that we have. There is no other way," the deputy foreign minister said. He stated that "the time of semitones, faith in the word - it has passed."
