Kremlin Spokesman: Gratitude for FSB Operation to Thwart Ukraine's Terror Plans

Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov expressed satisfaction with the Russian Federal Security Service's (FSB) operation to prevent a series of terrorist attacks planned by Ukraine. Peskov stated that the Kremlin, along with the Russian people, is grateful to the intelligence agencies. In his statements regarding Russia's stance on the Ukrainian issue, Peskov noted that German Chancellor Friedrich Merz's statement that Russia should be excluded from the process of developing security guarantees for Ukraine demonstrates the EU's position is at an impasse. Emphasizing that it is impossible to establish security guarantees for Ukraine without Russia's participation, Peskov pointed out that the EU's intention to completely exclude Russia from the Ukrainian issue eliminates the possibility of European countries' participation in the solution process. Peskov stressed that the Kremlin does not accept the EU's cyberattack accusations, stating that Russia has been unjustly accused of things it is not involved in for many years. Russia has learned to overcome the thousands of sanctions it faces and will continue to do so, Peskov said, reiterating the Russian people's and the Kremlin's gratitude for the FSB's operation.
