The situation with the collapse of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant's dam should become the subject of a worldwide study and investigation, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.Article continues below
"Naturally, this is no longer the topic of the day or the topic of the week, it has already been put into the historical context - I’m talking about what happened yesterday at the Kakhovka HPP. This really should be a subject of worldwide study, research and investigation," she said.
"The reaction of the West in all such situations is 100% predictable. It is an endless desire to blame Russia for everything that happens, regardless of whether it actually happened or is a figment of the imagination," the diplomat pointed out. Moreover, the reaction of the West "will always be like this," she added.
The spokeswoman explained that this is part of the information and psychological warfare and "endless linking of all the negative things that happen in the Western countries, outside and on the periphery with our country, in order to maintain the hysterical attitude of their own population towards the situation around Russia, in Russia in general, and so on." ■ What to read next
