Head of Russian intelligence declared relations of Russia and West “quite hot” war

Director of the Foreign Intelligence Service Sergey Naryshkin believes that the relations of Russia and the West are today not “cold”, but “quite a hot” war says in a statement published on this special service.

“Western politicians and commentators love to call what is happening” New Cold War. “It seems that historical parallels are not fully appropriate here. At least because in the second half of the 20th century, Russia fought with the West on distant approaches, and now the war went to The most borders of our homeland. So for us it is definitely not “cold”, but quite “hot,” he said.

Naryshkin noted that at the moment there is a fundamentally new stage of European and world history.
