US focus on Ukraine may undermine global system, Russian intel chief warns

"The United States is losing momentum on all fronts, from the Middle East to Asia and Africa," Sergey Naryshkin emphasized

MOSCOW, December 10. /TASS/. Washington’s preoccupation with Ukraine is eroding the financial, military, and political system established by the United States, Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) Director Sergey Naryshkin said.

"America’s fixation on Ukraine is beginning to have a destructive impact on the entire global financial, military, and political system created by Washington. The United States is losing momentum on all fronts, from the Middle East to Asia and Africa," he emphasized in an interview with Razvedchik magazine.

According to Naryshkin, the US has also lost its influence in other post-Soviet countries, with the Georgian Dream party winning a parliamentary election in Georgia and Moldovan President Maia Sandu’s regime barely managing to win the country’s election, which actually revealed the Moldovan people’s position. "Having realized that an unconditional focus on the West is detrimental, the Georgian authorities decided to act based on their own interests, and now they are purposefully distancing themselves from the ultra-liberal and transhumanist agenda, imposed on them from the outside and utterly foreign to Georgia’s traditional values. As for Moldova, the Sandu regime could barely secure the necessary number of votes in the election but in fact, it exposed a deep rift in Moldovan society," Naryshkin remarked, noting that Azerbaijan and Armenia were also independently resolving all issues related to a peaceful settlement of relations, without listening to recommendations from the US and the European Union.
