US needs a military conflict in Europe, in connection with which Washington intends to provide Ukraine with weaponry.

This statement was made in the Russian State Duma, by the leader of the National Front and French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen, who arrived in Moscow at the invitation of the International Affairs Committee. To produce this war, she said, US seeks to bring Ukraine into NATO.

She strongly condemned the latest policies of the French government, and stated that she shares the Russian point of view regarding Ukraine. What else she said at the meeting can be found at RT.

Marine Le Pen, head of the National Front and the challenger for the presidency in France, spoke at a meeting of the State Duma Committee on Foreign Affairs, about her vision of relations between Moscow and Paris, and the prospects for their cooperation on relevant issues.

Among the latter, she cited the fight against terrorism and fundamentalism. She also lamented the lack of independence of France in international affairs, criticized the position of its current powers in relation to Ukraine, and expressed in this regard the support of Russia.

Illegal Kiev and war crimes

According to Le Pen, regarding Ukraine, she has her own point of view that is different from the one pursued by the French establishment, and many politicians. She also stressed that she has never deviated from her words and did not change opinions.

“As for the situation in Ukraine, I was one of the few politicians in France who defended their own point of view on Ukraine, which coincides with the Russian. <…> My position since the conflict began, has not changed” — Tass quotes Le Pen.

She noted that it is always ambiguously stated the role played by the EU in the development and deepening of the conflict, referred to as a civil war. At the same time, Le Pen said, it was not only her opinion, but with the beginning of the election campaign, some others changed their position for tactical reasons.

Because of this, according to the politician, Paris now has to deal with the illegal government in Kiev.

“Today, in Ukraine, we have to deal with a government that illegally took power in an overthrow in the Maidan and now exposes the civilian population to being bombed in Donetsk and Luhansk.”
