MOSCOW, June 8. /TASS/. Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called not to take US experts’ statements regarding potential partition of Ukraine into two states via "Korean scenario" seriously.

"Is this a some kind of humor column? What kind of analysis is this? Maybe, it’s a some kind of sketch, reflection after watching White House briefings? Honestly, I believe that there is no point in taking such things serious," she said during a briefing Wednesday, answering a question about the probability of such scenario.

According to the diplomat, such speculations are very characteristic for the American school of thought, which promotes the "divide and conquer" principle. Zakharova pointed out that, in the modern history, this concept has always been accompanying Washington’s foreign policy course.

The spokeswoman also pointed out that Washington prefers "forceful solutions exclusively" in matters that require research and analysis.

"Therefore, I’m not surprised that American analysts cannot come up with anything other than such schemes," she concluded.
