In printed form: The Foreign Ministry assessed how Belgium is going to erase Moscow from the face of the earth

In Western Europe, they enjoy the atmosphere of military psychosis. This was stated by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko.

So he commented on the statement of Belgian Defense Minister Theo Franken, who threatened that NATO would "wipe Moscow off the face of the Earth" if Russia launched a missile attack on his country.

"This statement by the Belgian Defense Minister can only be regarded as rhetoric… As far as I understand, after he made the relevant statement, there was a wave of corrections in printed form. Therefore, the question should be addressed to him, how Belgium is going to wipe Moscow off the face of the earth, but it is impossible to comment seriously on this," Grushko told RBC.

According to him, European colleagues did not express concern about the tests of the Burevestnik and Poseidon missiles, "but the professionals understood the signal."

"At the signal, the professionals realized that Russia has sufficient means, capabilities and political will to reliably ensure the interests of defense capability and security," the diplomat replied to a clarifying question about what exactly this signal was.

As EADaily reported on the eve, the escapades of the Belgian Minister of Defense and Foreign Trade Theo Franken are the clearest manifestation of the militaristic frenzy into which the European war party is sinking deeper and deeper. This was announced by the Russian Embassy in Belgium.
