West waging war against Russia: Kremlin

Moscow : Western powers opposing Russia in Ukraine could be considered enemies as they are waging a war against the state, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
He pointed out that economic sanctions, the arming of Ukrainian nationalists, and giving them intel to attack Russian troops all amounted to acts of war, RT reported.
“Sure, we are still using the mild term ‘unfriendly states’ when referring to them,” Peskov told an educational forum.
He cited the decision to freeze Russian foreign reserves that the country kept in Western financial institutions and discussions about giving the money to Ukraine as an obvious attack on property rights, the cornerstone of Western civilization.
“That was money that you and I own,” Peskov told the audience. “It was stolen from us, it is being stolen from us.” Russia’s opponents are playing a more direct role in their attempts to hurt Russia in their “hybrid war”, the official said.
