Putin can call any country 'anti-Russian enclave' - military expert Musiyenko

The fact that Russian leader Vladimir Putin has called Ukraine an 'anti-Russian enclave' poses a real threat to other countries

Military expert Oleksandr Musiyenko said this on Espreso TV. 

"After Putin said that they are fighting an anti-Russian enclave, and not against an independent state. The world needs to understand that tomorrow Putin will call Lithuania an 'anti-Russian enclave', the day after tomorrow Poland, then Estonia, then Moldova, and so on," he said.

According to Musiyenko, this is a rather dangerous trend.

"When they talk about an independent sovereign state as some enclave against which you can even start not a war, but some special military operation. Tomorrow they will conduct an amphibious landing in Croatia or go to Slovenia. They will declare them some kind of 'anti-Russian enclave' and say that they are defending Russia's interests there. These are rather threatening trends," the expert concluded.
