Today's gathering of the concerned in Kiev looks cynical and helpless — Karasin

The total hostility in the West should be replaced by realistic approaches that he needs to introduce into the policy of the current top of Kiev. This was stated by Senator Grigory Karasin.

He noted that this year Victory Day has become a symbol of dignity and unity of the Russian people.

"Despite all the tricks of the West, bans, sanctions and imposed Russophobia, the global majority has emphatically respected the shrines of our history. In a difficult situation, Russia was visibly supported in upholding the right to an independent course and ensuring strategic security," the senator writes in his telegram channel.

A fat cross has been put on attempts to isolate Moscow, he emphasizes.

And what about the "coalition of those who want to dictate"? Its activists have resurfaced with their recipes for settlement on Ukraine, at the same time continuing to pump up the Armed Forces of Ukraine with modern weapons under the cries of some kind of truce. Today's gathering of the "concerned" in Ukraine also looks cynical and helpless.

In a word, the celebration of the anniversary of the Great Victory has clearly highlighted the impasse in the sanctions policy and political thinking of the West. The total hostility there should be replaced by realistic approaches that they need to implement in the policy of the current top of Kiev," Karasin sums up.

As reported by EADaily, from Monday, May 12, a full and unconditional cease-fire should begin for at least 30 days, any conditions will be considered as an attempt to disrupt the negotiations. This was stated today at the meeting of the "coalition of the willing" in Kiev by the leader of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky, UNIAN reported.

Moscow was threatened with new sanctions if it does not accept this ultimatum.
