Political analyst Alexander Musienko shared his vision of the development of the situation in the near future, noting that the upcoming events could become a serious test for everyone.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to Dialog.
«It seems to me that the ATACMS and Storm Shadow strikes on Russian territory are, of course, important, but they cannot be enough, because Pyongyang and Moscow are constantly reaching new agreements, and, apparently, they reached them during the recent visit of the Russian Defense Minister to North Korea. Belousov visited there and met with his North Korean colleagues,— he said.
The expert warned about the Kremlin's intentions, which could create conditions for the start of a global military conflict:
«I think that by the time the boundaries of possibilities are expanded, because this is a challenge to everyone, a challenge to international security, what the DPRK and Russia are doing now. They are globalizing and internationalizing this conflict. I think that due to the weakness of the West and South Korea in particular in the Pacific region, I do not rule out that soon “Nuts” will fly from North Korea towards the US allies in the region. This is the future that is worth expecting».
At the same time, Musienko did not rule out that China could also test some kind of missile, although China will be watching.
«It is beneficial for them to have all the attention now directed directly at Russia. Although it won't be without China, because Trump's team, which is being formed and may form the government and administration of the newly elected US president, has a rather serious anti-Chinese position and is determined to stop Beijing, Musienko emphasized.
Meanwhile, Zelensky gave NATO an ultimatum: the president said in what form Ukraine should join the Alliance.
