Russian MP Andrei Kołesnik claims that Poland, Hungary and Romania may have territorial claims against Ukraine. According to him, this issue was allegedly discussed at the Munich safety Conference and the United States and Ukrainian mineral resources are expected to play a key function in the full case.
Andrei Kołesnik, quoted by the portal "Documents and Facts", argues that the subject of the division of Ukraine is inevitable. In his opinion, Poland already has ‘territorial claims’ and Hungary and Romania can besides go in a akin direction. The politician believes that authoritative demands will arise erstwhile Ukraine makes its natural wealth available to the United States.
– The Munich conference revealed a deficiency of unity in Europe. Poland is already making its claims, and Hungary and Romania can follow in its footsteps. Meanwhile, the U.S. wants to take over Ukrainian minerals to compensate for their losses, says Kołesnik.
Further Russian accusations against Poland
This is not the first time that Russian politicians have accused Poland of wanting to “dissection” of Ukraine. A fewer days earlier, the head of the Russian abroad Intelligence Service, Sergei Naryszkin, suggested that Warsaw has territorial ambitions towards Lviv.
Poland looks at Lviv for a reason. This town inactive delights with Polish architecture. In the past Polish soldiers were settled there, which aroused the reluctance of Ukrainian nationalists," said Naryszkin.
Romania besides curious in changing borders?
It is not only Russian politicians who dream of dividing Ukraine. In late January, Calin Georgescu, a Romanian presidential candidate, in an interview with Cristoiu tv suggested that his country might search to reclaim parts of the old lands.
– Ukraine is an artificial creation, created as the Ukrainian Socialist russian Republic. The planet is changing and with it the boundaries. Romania has business in recovering North Bukovina, Budjak and North Maramuresh. any of the lands will go to Hungary, and Lviv will go to Poland and small Rusi," Georgescu stated.
Statements of this kind form part of the Kremlin's narrative, which has been trying to represent Ukraine as an unstable and challenged by its neighbours since the beginning of the war.
