China: NATO blamed for aggravation of Ukrainian crisis
For more than 30 years, NATO has been fueling tensions everywhere, breaking stability and encouraging separatism, Zhang Hanhui said
NATO was the major cause of the aggravation of the Ukrainian crisis, Chinese Ambassador to Russia Zhang Hanhui said in an interview with our reporters.
“For more than 30 years, NATO has been fueling tensions everywhere, breaking stability and encouraging separatism, like it was in Kosovo, Libya, and Afghanistan.
Five eastwards expansions seriously impacted the post-Cold War order and security in Europe and were the key cause of the aggravation of the Ukrainian crisis,” he said.
“But it goes on prospering being fed by unleashing wars and instigating conflicts. Facts show that wherever NATO extends its diabolic hands, there will be no peace and people will be dying.”
“Being a Cold War relic, NATO should have ceased to exist when the Cold War ended,” the Chinese diplomat noted.
