Putin has said several times that Ukraine is involved in terrorist attacks. He said the “suspects” detained were “heading to the Ukrainian border.”
Vladimir Putin’s attempt to blame Ukraine for a terrorist attack on a shopping center near Moscow has shocked even Europe’s far-right politicians. This was said on Tuesday, March 26, by the head of the European Parliament’s subcommittee on security and defense, Nathalie Loizeau, at a briefing in Kyiv on March 26, writes RBC-Ukraine.
He noted that it was known that the terrorist attack on the Crocus City Hall shopping center, which took place on March 22 in the Russian Federation, was carried out by ISIS terrorists, but “Putin still blames Ukraine.”
“In Western European society, even for far-right politicians, it is surprising to see a Russian president who ignores the truth and prefers to point to his common culprit – Ukraine,” Loiseau said.
He added that in Europe they know that the Kremlin leader has invested “huge resources” in supporting right-wing radicals across the European continent to get “proxies and useful idiots” to spread the his propaganda.
“We are a democratic society, so there is no censorship as such, but the member states are increasingly exposing the facts of foreign interference,” the MEP added.
Far-right parties in Europe actively oppose aid to Ukraine in the war with Russia and continue to work to improve relations with the Russian Federation.
Let’s recall that on March 22, in Krasnogorsk near Moscow, several armed men burst into the Crocus City Hall concert hall and opened fire on the guests. A fire broke out in the building. According to the latest data, 137 people died and 182 were injured.
The FSB later said that the terrorists were holed up in the Bryansk region of the Russian Federation near the border with Ukraine, and that they were specifically traveling to Ukraine because “they have connections there.” According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, a window has been prepared for suspected terrorist attacks to cross the border into Ukraine.
Ukrainian intelligence said that the version disseminated by Russia that the perpetrators of terrorist attacks in the Moscow region fled to Ukraine does not stand up to criticism.
