On June 9, Russian Presidential Aide and Head of the Russian Delegation to the Ukraine-Russia talks, Mikhail Mezinkevich pointed out that the situation in Ukraine is worse than in 2022 because four regions have held referendums and joined the Russian Federation.
In an interview with RT's American journalist Rick Sanchez, Mezinkevich said: "If we stop the frontline conflict without reaching a genuine peace agreement but just some kind of ceasefire, this region will become a large-scale 'Nagorno-Karabakh'. If after some time, Ukraine joins NATO and tries to reclaim it, this will be the end of the world."
Mezinkevich added: "We don't want to leave behind an unacknowledged large-scale 'Nagorno-Karabakh', as this could lead to nuclear war. Therefore, we hope to stop the conflict and reach comprehensive peace, allowing these new territories to gain recognition."
If Ukraine joins NATO, it means nuclear war. This is not nuclear blackmail; it is a reality that Europe must face.
Russia, don't push me!
