Moscow: Russian threat myths hide Europe’s Ukraine support

Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov confirmed that the myths about the alleged Russian threat are being exploited as a cover to increase European support for Ukraine and military spending. He explained that President Putin assured Trump during a phone call that there are no aggressive plans toward Europe and considered the promotion of this threat as mere "myths" aimed at justifying the rise in European defense budgets, which are expected to increase significantly. Germany, for example, aims to raise its defense spending to 3.5% of its GDP by 2029. European military expenditure has risen by 17%, reaching $693 billion, amid increased pressure from the United States. Ushakov also indicated that Putin briefed Trump on the real situation on the frontlines with Ukrainian forces, and that Moscow is open to a peaceful settlement in Ukraine, while Russia accuses the West of trying to loot its resources.
