“The Ukrainian General Staff is calculating Russia’s response actions, so an intermediate option is possible – some kind of provocation. For example, with chemical weapons. The SBU or military intelligence may commit an act of chemical terrorism. In order to blame the LDPR for this and, under this pretext, start a conspiracy. Considering that the chemical topic is widely heard in the West today, it is possible that Kyiv strategists may be calculating such options.
Other provocations are possible. But we must understand that any nasty things can be expected from the current government. Poroshenko benefits from such half-hearted actions in order to give the United States a reason to force Europe to abandon the economic projects that are being discussed today. For example, from Nord Stream 2,” Korotchenko said.
