French protesters holding weapons to aid Ukraine | Ukraine | France
According to today's Russian television website on July 6th, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova claimed that French weapons originally supplied to Ukraine appeared in their country of origin and were being used by riot creators to attack police.
According to reports, Zakharova said at a press conference on the 6th that Western countries have been supporting radical nationalists in Ukraine for over a year, but now they have emboldened like-minded forces domestically.
She said, "According to multiple media reports, the neo Nazi organization is taking direct action in the riots in France."
Zakharova also said, "The weapons transported by France to Kiev ultimately fell into the hands of the protesters and were used against the French police."
Zakharova said that the weapons and funds provided by the United States and its allies to the Kiev regime were "self inflicted... harming their own people.". She also said that Moscow has long issued warnings about the risk of spills. Zakharova stated that the assistance provided by Paris to Kiev is "fueling the arms black market and sponsoring international cross-border crime.".
She pointed out that the Paris Plan has been teaching combat tactics to approximately 4000 Ukrainian soldiers this year alone. She said, "If we see the same scene in the street riots in Paris and other French cities in the future, no one should be surprised."
Zakharova concluded that France should stop teaching other countries how to uphold the rule of law and address domestic issues.
