Zakharova: Western weapons and mercenaries will become part of EU black market

Moscow, SANA- Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has affirmed that Western weapons and mercenaries sent to Ukraine will become part of the EU black market.

“Western weapons and mercenaries who come to Ukraine will become part of the EU black market and this is a fact,” Zakharova was quoted by Russia Today website as saying on Telegram, commenting on the statement of Economic Security Bureau chief, Vadim Melnik, who referred to the operations of selling Western humanitarian and military aid in his country.

“The Kyiv regime goes into hysteria when I talk about this,” Zakharova added.

In this regard, she wondered, “What will they do with Vadim Melnik, the negotiator with Moscow on the Ukrainian war, and will they shoot him in the courtyard, as they did with the Ukrainian negotiator Denis Kireev, who was killed by the Ukrainian security service after he participated in the first round of negotiations with Moscow?”

Melnik had previously said that even military aid from Western countries is sold for “money” and that the Ukrainian security services discover such cases.111
