Russia might cut diplomatic relations with Ukraine

The newspaper "Izvestia", citing a source in the Russian foreign policy circles voiced the possible options for responding to an attempt of Ukrainian intelligence to hold a series of terrorist attacks in the Crimea. So the cut of diplomatic relations between Russia and Ukraine is possible. The Russian embassy in Kiev can be closed, and diplomats in this case, will be sent back to Moscow, said the media source.

Earlier this week Russian President Vladimir Putin commented Kiev's attempt to organize sabotage in the Crimea: Ukraine rather than to seek a peaceful solution, has moved to the practice of terror.

"I think, for all it is obvious that the current Kiev authorities are not looking for ways to solve problems through negotiations and resort to terror. This is a very disturbing thing ", - stated Putin.

Background on this from Katehon:

The US has clearly pushed Ukraine into conflict with Russia. This is beneficial to certain political groups, especially the Democrats and lobbyists associated with the military-industrial complex. By provoking and worsening the conflict, it becomes possible for them to justify the further strengthening of NATO and the delivery of military goods to Ukraine.

This same scheme was implemented in the case of Saudi Arabia, which is losing the war with Yemen. The Saudis’ losses led to the United States selling them a new batch of weapons.
