MOSCOW, November 29. /TASS/. Experts from the Russian Security Council stressed that the West’s interference in Russia’s domestic affairs has been mounting during Moscow’s special military operation, the press service of the agency reported on Tuesday.

"Experts from Russia’s Security Council discussed issues related to the emergence of new challenges and threats to national security amid the special military operation.
