VLADIVOSTOK, September 4. /TASS/. Some in the West do not yet realize the plague that they unleashed when they created the terrorist Kiev regime, and now they have no one to blame but themselves, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told a briefing on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF).
"I think that the Europeans do not even fully understand what they are being drawn into. They are being drawn in by the United States, the Anglo-Saxons. It seems to me that they are not yet cognizant of the kind of plague they have created in the form of the terrorist Kiev regime, and they have done this with their own hands," she said.
Zakharova also noted that the battalions that will now be created from Ukrainian citizens recruited in European countries "will also strike at Western European countries."
"They ate their fill there, took a breather, and healed up there. They will strike the same way all the international terrorist groups the West previously created did," she added.
According to the diplomat, the Middle East "is looking at the European continent in a kind of bittersweet way, seeing that for the first time in history, Europe itself has given birth to an international terrorist cell."
"Before that there were such examples in North Africa, the Middle East, Afghanistan. But now, Europe has birthed its own terrorist monster for the first time. "This terrorist monster will operate all over the world. It will still strike Western Europe, they always return to those who created them," Zakharova noted.
