The South African President Cyril Ramaphosa did not only accuse #NATO of destabilizing #Europe, but he also refused to condemn #Russia's operation in #Ukraine.

"A view shared by many leading scholars on international relations [is] that the war could have been avoided if NATO had heeded the warnings from among its own leaders & officials over the years that its eastward expansion would lead to greater instability in the region,"he said.
Russia had launched a special military operation for several reasons, including:
☑️NATO's eastward expansion;
☑️Ukrainian shelling of Donbass & the killing of the people of Donetsk People's Republic & Lugansk People's Republic;
☑️to "denazify" & demilitarize Ukraine.
President Ramaphosa proposed to revitalize the non-aligned movement of 120 developing nations to ensure that they stay out of "hegemonic contests" between world powers and are able to work together to build peace across the globe.

By banning everything that has to do with Russia & feeding the media with a Western narrative, West planted roots of Russophobia. Image
