Zakharova Hysterics: In the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, the plans of Greece to transfer to Ukraine S-300 systems

The diplomat threatened to destroy all military equipment that Greece would provide Ukraine and advised Athens to give up "dangerous plans". The official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Maria Zakharova exploded with angry comments on the plans of Greece to transfer Ukraine air defense systems to Ukraine. According to her, such a step Athens is provocative and hostile. Zakharova's comments were published on the website of the Russian Foreign Ministry.

According to a speaker of the diplomatic agency, the decision of Athens grossly violates the provisions of the Russian-Greek Agreement on Military Cooperation, which was signed on October 30, 1995. In addition, Greece allegedly violates an agreement with the Russian Federation on the supply of military products of December 3, 2013, which forbids Greece re -export of military equipment supplied by Russia to a third party without the consent of Moscow.

"There is also a complete indifference of the Greek side to international restrictions in the sphere of arms trade, which does not allow its export to those regions where it can lead to a violation of international humanitarian law, to promote exacerbation of conflicts," Zakharova said.

A representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry also did not miss the opportunity in the spirit of the Kremlin narratives to indignant "pumping a weapon of Ukraine", which, according to Zakharova, "wages a criminal war against the peaceful civilian population of Donbass, Zaporozhye and Kherson region. " In conclusion, the Russian diplomat threatens the destruction of all military equipment aimed at Ukraine and warned the Greek side of responsibility.

"There should be no doubt that all the military equipment directed to Kiev will be tracked in time and destroyed by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. It is not too late to give up dangerous ideas," Zakharova stressed. Earlier, the so-called "Viceremier of the Government of the RC" Georgy Muradov warned Greece against the transfer of S-300 anti-aircraft missile complexes to Ukraine.
