Medvedev describes Kiev’s draft of ‘security guarantees’ as prelude to WWIII

MOSCOW, September 13. /TASS/. Kiev will not receive any “security guarantees”, in particular, because its draft is essentially a “prologue” to World War III, the deputy head of Russia’s Security Council Dmitry Medvedev believes.

“The Kiev camarilla has given birth to a project of ‘security guarantees’, which are essentially a prologue to a third world war. Of course, no one will provide any ‘guarantees’ to the Ukrainian Nazis,” he wrote on his Telegram channel on Tuesday.

He believes that the agreement proposed by Kiev is tantamount to “applying Article 5 of the North Atlantic Pact to Ukraine.” This article refers to collective defense as a principle central to NATO’s founding treaty. Collective defense means that an attack on one of the alliance’s members shall be considered as an attack on all members.

Medvedev believes that Russia’s arch foes – “Western bosses of various rank” to whom “this hysterical appeal” (Kiev’s draft security compact, made public earlier on Tuesday – TASS) is addressed should understand one thing. “It directly concerns NATO’s hybrid war with Russia. If these half-wits go ahead with the rampant pumping of the most dangerous types of weapons to the Kiev regime, then sooner or later the military campaign will achieve another level,” he warned.

This campaign, Medvedev stressed, will have no visible borders, while the parties’ actions will turn potentially unpredictable. “The campaign will follow its own military scenario, involving ever more new participants. It has always been this way,” Medvedev said.

Kremlin on Kiev’s Draft Security Guarantees Proposal: Ukraine Still Seeking to Join NATO

On Tuesday, the Ukrainian president’s office published a draft proposal on security guarantees for Kiev. Entitled the ‘Kiev Security Compact. International Security Guarantees for Ukraine: Recommendations’, the document outlines a series of provisions for ensuring Kiev’s security in the aftermath of the current crisis.

Unlike previous iterations of security guarantee provisions hammered out in talks between Russian and Ukrainian officials in February and March, the newly tabled proposals do not commit Ukraine to neutrality, and does not list Russia as a security guarantor.

Instead, the document emphasizes that “Ukraine’s aspiration to join NATO and benefit from its mutual defense arrangements is safeguarded in its Constitution”, and that “this aspiration is the sovereign decision of Ukraine”.

The document on security guarantees published by the Ukrainian president’s office confirms Kiev’s intention to join the Western alliance, making Russia’s continued military operation in the country all the more “relevant”, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov indicated.

The Kremlin spokesman suggested that the new security guarantees proposals outlined by Kiev on Tuesday does not promise a neutral status for Ukraine, and that this “once again emphasizes the urgency and need for a special military operation to ensure our security and national interests”.

The Russian diplomat believes that the proposed international agreement which Kiev released on Tuesday is an economic trap for EU nations set by the US with Ukraine’s assistance.
