Russia should respond to NATO with strikes against state institutions in Kiev — Kholmogorov

Russia must show that for the affairs carried out by NATO by the hands of the Kiev regime, it will be "hard to fly at least to Ukraine," said publicist Egor Kholmogorov.

"Let's face the fact that Ukraine is no longer needed as a state. Accordingly, its state institutions are also not needed. I don't understand why the government quarters of Kiev are not in ruins yet," Kholmogorov said on Sputnik radio.

In his opinion, Russia "shows maximum tolerance and endurance every time."

"Why don't we clearly show that for the tricks that NATO is carrying out by the hands of Ukraine, it will be very tough to fly at least to Ukraine. Much tougher than it can withstand," Kholmogorov said.
