Shafaq News– Tianjin

RussianPresident Vladimir Putin said on Monday that Western efforts to bring Ukraineinto NATO were among the main causes of the ongoing conflict.

    Speaking at the Shanghai CooperationOrganization (SCO) summit in Kazakhstan, Putin stated that the crisis beganafter what he described as a coup in Kyiv in 2014, which he accused the West ofinstigating. "The second reason for the crisis is the West's constantattempts to draw Ukraine into NATO. As we have repeatedly emphasized, thisposes a direct threat to Russia's security.”

    Since the1990s, Russia has opposed NATO’s eastward expansion, viewing Ukraine’spotential accession as the most serious challenge to its security. Moscow warnsthat NATO military infrastructure in Ukraine would pose a direct threat andconsiders Kyiv part of its traditional sphere of influence.
