Well-known Russian TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov harshly responded to Polish political scientist Yakub Koreybe, who called Ukraine "the result of strategic illiteracy" of Russia. In the program "Evening with Vladimir Soloviev," he agreed with the opinion of the political scientist, but added that Poland is also the result of "our strategic illiteracy manifested by Gorbachev and Yeltsin". "If it was not, I would have looked, how would you tweet something. We would sit quietly and calmly, as now Germany, which can not tweet anything against America, because the troops are standing there, "the journalist said.. The dispute was due to the expansion of NATO, which, according to Koreiba, allegedly has no plans to attack Russia. Moreover, he accused the Russian Federation of the fact that she "is to blame" for changing the approach to her alliance, since before the 2016 summit there were no plans to place a "permanent contingent on the eastern flank". In response, the TV presenter reminded that NATO has been expanding towards Russia since 1997, which not so much worries the Russian Federation, as "we understand that if something happens, we will be forced to strike". "We feel sorry for people," he explained.. Then he commented on Koreiba's words that NATO is allegedly a defensive alliance. Russians remembered the fate of Libya, Iraq, Syria and Yugoslavia. "And do you highlight NATO's plans?

If you think that NATO is a purely defensive alliance, tell me, from whom did you defend?", He asked the political scientist. Also Soloviev added that he was amused to hear the words that joining NATO is an "internal affair" of a specific country. He cited Georgia as an example, the government of which "paid external sources" and also the "Polish miracle", which happened "only thanks to external infusions". "Internal affairs of Ukraine are still being decided at the US Embassy," the presenter added..
