“The US administration is currently the main source and the main escalation factor in the Ukrainian crisis and the anti-Russian hysteria. As soon as our diplomats carefully put some sutures on the conflict situations and smear them with a healing medicine, the Americans immediately rip off the bandages and rub salt into the wound,” said Ivan Melnikov, who is also first deputy speaker of the State Duma. “This is a pre-planned strategy, shooting to kill,” Melnikov said. “We should not expect anything different from them – force is the only thing they would understand.” Melnikov’s comments came after Obama signed the Ukraine Freedom Support Act, providing lethal and non-lethal aid to the Kiev regime and giving the US president powers to impose more economic sanctions against Russian companies. The signing came despite Obama’s opposition to the motion – the US president previously called it counterproductive and causing divisions with Washingtons European allies.
