Russian deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov
Introduction – Dec 27, 2021
Despite what the Mail claims below, the situation in Ukraine is NOT a replay of the Cuba crisis. Now the roles are reversed as the West is deploying its military closer and closer to Russia’s Western border.
Crucial among the weapons being deployed by NATO are missile defences in Poland and the Czech Republic. The next step in NATO’s steady eastern advance would be to deploy medium range missiles in Poland, and if Kyev joins NATO, in Ukraine too.
This is what Russia dreads and why it is adamantly opposed to Ukraine joining NATO. Deploying medium range nuclear missiles in Ukraine would mean NATO would be only a matter of minutes from striking Moscow.
Over the past few decades NATO has shifted its focus steadily eastwards, to the point that its forces are now effectively on Russia’s doorstep. Hitler used blizkrieg tactics and Napoleon used his Grande Armee while NATO is taking a more incremental approach.
As Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexander Fomin maintained recently, the Western military alliance is preparing for war with Russia. That’s why Moscow has been so adamant in its opposition to Ukraine joining NATO and why the situation is so fraught with danger. Ed.
The West is facing a new Cuban missile crisis unless it caves in to Putin over his NATO demands ‘here and now’, Moscow warns as Putin stages fresh war games
- Deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov made ominous comparison to Cuba
- Russia won’t compromise on guarantee that Kiev won’t join NATO, he said
- Ryabkov said Moscow won’t tolerate NATO deploying missiles in eastern Europe
- Warning comes as fresh drills with 1,000 troops were staged in western Russia

The world is heading for a new Cuban missile crisis in Ukraine if the West fails to deal with Russia‘s security demands ‘here and now’, Moscow said today.
This came amid a new round of major military exercises by Vladimir Putin‘s troops in an evident bid to warn NATO of the seriousness of the situation ahead of the New Year.
Videos showed the latest Russian drills – some close to Ukraine – amid fears Putin will invade if the West fails to meet his demands.
Hawkish deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov denied he was exaggerating in comparing the current crisis to the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.
‘No, not too much,’ he said in an interview with Mezhdunarodnaya Zhizn magazine when asked if his comparison was ‘too much.’
There are fears a war could erupt between Russia and Western-ally Ukraine in the coming weeks.
Ryabkov appeared to rule out a Russian compromise on seeking cast-iron guarantees that Ukraine would not join NATO, and promises not to deploy strike weapons in eastern European countries which are members of the western alliance.
‘I call on everyone considering this topic publicly to think whether it is shameful for Russia to meet Western ultimatum demands halfway,’ he said.
And he made clear that ‘if we cannot do it [through diplomacy], then open questions will emerge: what are further steps and what should we do?
‘We are against escalation, we are against conflicts, we do not draw lines in the sand, just the logic itself leads us to say that we are not ready to make peace with the current situation.’

Exercises in Russia’s western military district involved drills to repel a massive air strike by a simulated enemy on strategic facilities of the district, according to TV Zvezda, owned by the defence ministry. Around 1,000 servicemen took part in the war games which included ‘repulsing an attack by enemy reconnaissance and sabotage groups’ (pictured: tanks taking part in the war games). Click to enlarge
He warned: ‘We can no longer postpone, let’s deal with this serious issue … here and now.’
He insisted: ‘We must put an end to the expansion of NATO, NATO infrastructure, NATO capabilities further east.
‘We must exclude Ukraine from joining NATO.’
His words amplified Putin’s insistence on Russian TV that ‘I want everyone to realise, both in our country and abroad, I want our partners to understand one thing…
‘It’s not that we don’t want anyone to cross a certain line.
‘It’s that we have nowhere to retreat now.
‘They have pressed us against such a line… we have nowhere to go…
‘Like I said, they will deliver missile systems to Ukraine, four to five minutes flying time to Moscow.
‘Well, where shall we move now?
‘It’s just that they’ve brought us to the state where we must tell them: ‘Stop!’ That’s what it is’.’

Weapons deployed were modern anti-aircraft missile systems S-300V, Tor-M2 and portable anti-aircraft missile systems Igla, said reports.

It will be CMC 2 if Ruusia puts nukes on Cuba and Venezuela.
I have always been on the fence with Putin, but my heart has backed him.
When these weak negotiations have taken place and the tissue paper treaties are signed, if this happens, okay. If Putin doesn’t get what he demands, at the very basics for Russian security, then Putin MUST turn off the gas to the EU and by 3rd party exports, the UK as well.
This will cause a calamitous rise in gas and energy prices, by a factor 6 to 10 fold. These price rises will not only clobber the EU & UK, they will trash the US economy.
Putin must break the US hold on EU leaders. He has no choice. Why should Russia keep EU/UK businesses in business, or heat the homes of EU & UK sheeple when NATO is war mongering, because the City crime cartels and Wall Street Mobsters want their mitts on Russian resources?
Putin is close to that point in time when he will be forced to reveal who he works for, or if he is indeed his own man.
Even if Putin is a Roth, those behind Putin are not all Roths. There are powerful Russians, some in the military, who will act if Putin fails to take the right decisions. Xi Jinping is also in a similar precarious position, although in China, the game isn’t so clear cut.
We have Russia powering the EU & UK, yet NATO threatens WW3. This looks as clear cut as it can get, & this is why Putin looks a little distressed in his media rants. Putin looks strong on paper, but he can get couped and the new leader could be a senior General who won’t even talk to the West. Remember, the US embassy in Moscow runs on a very small crew. A new Russian leader from the military would shut it down for good and Russia & Belarus would pull up the draw bridge and close their borders.
After the Soviet collapse, Russia entered into the Western system, and under Putin, the country was rebuilt. For all of Russias best endeavours to plicate the West, Russia has been repeatedly kicked in the teeth for their troubles. The Russian sheeple are very aware how Western sheeple hate on Russia, not to mention the bile that spews form Western fake news, & these feeling are more acute in the military, so there’s a very solid argument that dialogue with the West is insulting to Russia and that Putin has ultimately failed to make his case. Of course, the West has made this situation. Maybe they are banking (pun there) on a coup, followed by another collapse?
I have NO IDEA why hardly a day goes by without Truthseeker dredging up, from the open-sewer of the ZOGUK Propaganda Press, yet another steaming turd from the The Daily Malefactor.
The Jews would like nothing more than to plunge Europe into yet another bloody war of annihilation, where tens of millions die, whilst they stand on the sidelines, gleefully rubbing their hands as the Skekels pour in.
They really are pure, unalloyed evil.

Russia might play his card in Syria first.
There will be no war just yet – the UK has not finished it’s transitioning to a War Economy. Power and food rationing is not yet in place. That said, the lunatics in Kiev may kick things off anyway.
Where ever America sets up the Missile Systems and the location of them Russia should do exactly what the Americans are doing. Simply copy, mirror their moves exactly. As long as its all within the Law Whats all the ….. Fuss about.
Lets say America moves in a Missiles to Poland or Ukraine.
Russia should & must counter that move to the same distance these missles are.
America will say these Missiles are for pure defensive purposes but anyone with half a brain knows that these missles can be changed to offensive in less then a few hours and NOBODY would know the difference.
What should be alarming is this is Caucasian vs Caucasian. And who is laughing in the back ground Russia.
Has Israel made a move to China or is getting ready to align with China as it seems to have totally screwed up America’s Government & its society.
Remember what a Few Israeli leaders have said over the course of a few decades.
Ariel Sharon has said Don’t worry about America we ( Israel control America ) and the Americans know it.
Palestine one day America tomorrow. Bibi Netanyahu.
911 was good for Israel. Bibi Netanyahu said these words less then 48 hours after September 11 2001.
Since the creation of the state of Israel the amount of Conflict & human suffering this Tiny nation has inflicted on many many Nations is incalculable.
Since America was the one to Protect Israel since 1947 has America benefited from this relationship.
America being Israelis security guarantee has cost America thousands of lifes & left America scared. The amount of Money given to Israel since 1947 is upwards of 200 Billion. 200 billion that could have been spent on Americans, Infrastructure, health, education, Border, Police, Roads, Hospitals.
No Israel is the Parasite that has sucked and sucked the very life out of America & has left it in terrible condition.
America resembles a broken down whore house that has been raped and raped time and time again by Israel and its many Tentacles. AIPAC, World Jewish Affairs, the anti Semite trick, The media, ADL, Southern Poverty Law centre. The kikes in the Congress & the Senate.
Jim Trafficant tried to sound the warning many many years ago about Israel. He was hounded out of Congress, Trumped up Charges, ridiculed in the Media.
I say many Americans have tried to sound the Alarm and have been destroyed.
President Nixon knew just how much of a danger Jewish Power was.
All President of America have been subservient to the Jew & Israel. A massive cost has been paid. Look around and you can see the damage Israel & its War on Terror has caused.
The world needs three or four Adolf Hitler’s. Say what ever you like about AH, he at least had the ( BALLS to do something about it.
Mankind is well on the way to being a slave to the Jew. The Jew loathes anyone that is non-jewish.
To think people believe that the state of Israe & its people are Sacred is probably the single biggest Con job in History.
Jews have demonstrated to the world they are not fit to be in any position of influence let alone be given a Nation that has the capabilities to affect world events on a Biblical scale.
