MOSCOW, August 14. /TASS/. The West wants any potential agreements on Ukraine to be reached strictly on its own terms, as this is key to maintaining its monopoly on "ruling humanity," Russian Federation Council Deputy Speaker Konstantin Kosachev said on Thursday.
"I observe how the other side is carrying out its set of measures for the Alaska summit… And I clearly understand that, for them, the main thing is not what the two presidents ultimately agree on, but how the possible agreement will be worked out— on their terms, that is, through a monologue (dictat) from the West, or on mutual terms, that is, through dialogue between the West and the East (Russia)… For them, the stakes are extremely high: either they defend their monopoly on ruling humanity… or the globe will finally become different — equal for everyone and, precisely for that reason, prosperous and safe," Kosachev wrote on his Telegram channel.
Both London and Brussels are pushing Donald Trump by all means towards the first option, while Ukraine itself doesn’t matter to them at all, the senator noted. Moscow and its like-minded partners, he added, insist on the second option, "because Ukraine is truly important to us as an integral part of our world."
