Russia has long warned about the global spread of Kiev’s malevolent acts, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zakharova has said

The attack on a pipeline delivering Russian oil to Hungary is proof that there are no boundaries to the malign activities of the Kiev regime, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has stated.

Earlier on Monday, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said that the oil being supplied to his country had run dry after Ukraine targeted the Druzhba pipeline system. Szijjarto suggested that the “outrageous” attack was an attempt by Kiev and its supporters in Brussels to drag Budapest, which has maintained its neutrality, into the conflict.

Zakharova commented on Telegram that since the Western-backed coup in Ukraine in 2014, “Russia has been warning the ideologues nurturing the Kiev regime… that this monster – immoral and bloodthirsty – will never stop and will spread like a nasty infection all over the world.”

The Ukrainian authorities “have already committed terrorist attacks in Africa. They have shown up in the Middle East. They have drawn citizens of Central Asia into terrorism. In Europe, they have mastered the black arms market. They got into the illegal organ trade for its Western customers,” she wrote.

Ukraine strikes key oil pipeline to EU – Hungary

Last year, Mali and Niger severed diplomatic ties with Ukraine after the government of Vladimir Zelensky admitted to providing aid to Touareg militants, who ambushed a patrol of Malian government troops and Russian contractors.

Moscow had previously accused Ukraine of cooperating with Hayat Tahrir-al-Sham (HTS), the armed group which overthrew the Syrian government of Bashar Assad last year.

Russia has also accused Ukrainian intelligence of masterminding the terrorist attack on the Crocus City Hall concert venue outside Moscow in March 2024, in which four Tajikistan nationals killed 149 people and injured 600 others.
