The Foreign Minister of Russia, Sergey Lavrov, has warned that Moscow is running out of patience with the West as Russia continues to levy demands that the US and NATO have dismissed as non-starters.
Lavrov said at a news conference, “We have run out of patience. The West has been driven by hubris and has exacerbated tensions in violation of its obligations and common sense.”
Lavrov insisted that the US and its allies respond to Russia’s demands saying, “They must understand that the key to everything is the guarantee that NATO will not expand eastward.”
With Lavrov alluding to Russia’s demand that NATO stop expanding and never accept Ukraine and Georgia as members.
But both the US and NATO have repeatedly made it clear that the alliance’s open-door policy is non-negotiable, but Russia has not backed down.
As Russia is gathering a massive army along Ukraine’s borders while at the same time the Kremlin claims it has no plans to invade.
Diplomatic talks in Europe between Russia and the West did not lead to any major breakthroughs for resolving the crisis, and there are growing concerns that Moscow will use the failed discussions as a pretext for war.
The US has warned Russia that it will face massive economic consequences if it invades Ukraine, including potential sanctions aimed directly at Putin.
But the Kremlin warned that slapping sanctions on Putin would lead to a complete rupture in US-Russia relations with Russia cutting all ties with the US.
European leaders have said that a new war is on the horizon. Russia invaded and annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014, and has since supported separatists in a war against Ukrainian forces in the eastern Donbass region.
The US Secretary of State has said that Russia effectively has a “gun pointed at Ukraine’s head.”
But Russian President Vladimir Putin paints NATO as the antagonist, ignoring the fact that his aggressive actions in the region over the past decade have fostered the present tensions.
The US ambassador to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, said at a press briefing that, “We’re facing a crisis in European security. The drumbeat of war is sounding loud.”
The Biblical prophecies (Ezekiel 38, Ezekiel 39) foretell in the Gog of Magog prophecy that an alliance of countries including Ukraine will be brought under the dominion of Russia in the Last Days signaling the nearing fulfillment of end-time prophecies at the end of this age and the coming of Jesus Christ.
These events and conditions happening now are warning signs pointing to the nearing fulfillment of the Last Days prophecies at the end of this age revealing it’s time to prepare now for the nearing appearance of Jesus Christ for His Church by being born again spiritually into the Kingdom of God as Jesus said we must (John 3) and His Apostles who were authorized (Matthew 16:19) described how (Acts 2).
