USA uses Ukraine as battering ram against Russia

According to Putin, the United States is using Ukraine as a battering ram against Russia.

"The country, in fact, has lost sovereignty and is directly controlled by the United States that is using it as a battering ram against Russia, against our Union State with the Republic of Belarus, against the CSTO and the CIS as a whole,” the Russian president said.

The Ukrainian territory was turned into a test ground for biological experiments, and now they inundate it with weapons, Putin added.
