Ukraine was on the brink of war with Russia even under Yushchenko, - intelligence officer’s revelations
Ukraine nearly started a war with the Russian Federation during the war in Georgia in 2008. Former head of the Foreign Intelligence Service, Nikolai Malomuzh, stated this on the NewsOne television channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to him, at that time 48 “anti-terrorist operations” were carried out, which the public did not know about.
“We have always worked at the level of all presidents in difficult times. Especially in Crimea, especially in conditions of a possible war with Russia in 2008 during the period of Georgia. Here we had to make drastic decisions; we assessed all the threats. Society has probably never heard that we are on the brink of war with Russia. Literally in the eighth year, and almost started it. People have probably never heard that we carried out 48 anti-terrorist operations,” Malomuzh said.
