MOSCOW, November 7. /TASS/. The West tried to turn Ukraine into a tool for the strategic defeat of Russia through color revolutions, but the plan ultimately failed, Russian Security Council Secretary Sergey Shoigu said at a meeting with his counterparts from CIS countries in Moscow.

He pointed out that Kiev's aggression in the Kursk Region was aimed at seizing the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), which he described as nothing short of an act of nuclear terrorism.

TASS has compiled Shoigu’s key statements.

On the West's failed plan

The collective West sought to turn Ukraine "into an instrument for inflicting a strategic defeat on Russia" through color revolutions, but the plan ultimately failed.

Kiev's nuclear terrorism

Kiev's aggression in the Kursk Region was aimed at seizing the Kursk NPP.

In addition, regular attacks on the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant and related energy infrastructure continue. "What is this, if not an attempt to commit acts of nuclear terrorism?" Shoigu emphasized.

"The Kiev regime has now turned into an externally controlled, dangerous terrorist organization with its own industry and controlled territory, unlike international terrorist cells."

On multipolarity

The BRICS Summit in Kazan has effectively laid the foundations for a just multipolar world order, "which is based on indivisibility, security, and the sovereign right of states to choose their own path of development."

On the West losing leadership

The countries of the collective West are losing their economic, political, and moral leadership.

Now they are "effectively living in debt": "More and more states are abandoning the dollar and the euro as instruments for saving mutual settlements. It is clear that this situation does not suit the Western elites."

About elections in Moldova, Georgia

The people of Moldova and Georgia have felt the consequences of the Western takeover attempts and have drawn conclusions.

In Georgia, the West interfered in the election process without a second thought, but ultimately failed.

The result of the presidential election in Moldova, which the Western sponsors wanted to see, could only have been ensured "by blatant machinations."

The rights of Moldovan citizens living in Russia were violated: "Only two polling stations were opened, and only 10,000 ballots were sent. This was allegedly justified by security reasons."
