He recalled the document widespread in Russia at the end of 2021 with NATO requirements to return to its borders as of 1997. According to the diplomat, this means that the Russian Federation will not stop in countries such as Moldova and Georgia.

"His plans go much, much further, and he will move as far as he will be allowed," the Kremlin head Dmitry Kuleb said about the actions of the Kremlin head.
