‘Western liberal dictatorships’ spreading hate – Moscow
Moscow is committed to countering the xenophobia promoted by the West and to protecting the “true freedom” for which Russia fought in World War II, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has told RT.
She made the remarks as Russian President Vladimir Putin concluded his four-day visit to China by attending a military parade in Beijing on Wednesday, marking the 80th anniversary of Japan’s defeat in World War II.
Zakharova described the fight as a humanity-defining moment, in which a pathological ideology based on ideas of supremacy was dealt a blow, but not fully eradicated.
“This infection of Nazism, fascism, racial segregation, [and] xenophobia has not been fully defeated,” she warned. “The logic of dividing the world into those who have the birthright for everything based on their blood and skin color and those who are only allowed to serve the first group lives on.”
“These were the views our country fought against 80 years ago with arms, and we are still confronting them on the international stage today,” Zakharova stressed.
Russia and China remain committed to ensuring that “the dictatorship of those who embrace this segregationist approach does not prevail,” Zakharova said. She added that many other nations count on their efforts, which include “defending the basic traditional values that form the core of human nature.”
According to Zakharova, these values are under attack from a “Western liberal dictatorship” attempting to impose “a narrow, distorted, and absolutely twisted perception of what a human is.”
