Russia: The West wants to destabilize the entire Eurasian space

  "The ultimate task of the West is to destabilize the entire Eurasian space." The main intention of the West is to destabilize the entire Eurasian space. This was stated by the head of the Department of Economic Cooperation of the Russian Foreign Ministry Dmitry Birichevsky, adding at the same time that Western countries do not hide their interest in subordinating Central Asian raw materials and productive resources to their own economic interests . The diplomat specified that under these conditions, the Russian Foreign Ministry seeks to continue working closely with partners to improve the sustainability of national economies through comprehensive cooperation and coordination of efforts, especially in the field of import substitution and strengthening of technological sovereignty.

At the beginning of June, the President of the European Council Charles Michel declared that the European Union intends to start a dialogue with the countries of Central Asia on the question of compliance with Western anti-Russian sanctions, specifying however that the EU would not intend to take measures against those who help circumvent them, hoping to diplomatically convince them not to support Moscow. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday that the promises of Western states to provide security guarantees to Ukraine were empty excuses and that such promises made to Kiev are increasingly numerous. Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations Dmitriy Polyanskiy compared the current actions of the Ukrainian authorities to those of the Georgian authorities in 2008. On August 8, the diplomat said that Kiev's mistake was to count naively about the constant help of the West after NATO's indirect war with Russia to the last Ukrainian.
