Gorbachev: US Pulled Russia Into New Cold War That Could Turn 'Hot'
Mikhail Gorbachev stated that the United States has pulled Russia into a new Cold War that faces the risk of further escalation.
The 83-year-old former Soviet leader made the comments on Thursday in an interview with Russian news agency Interfax.
“The U.S. has already dragged us into a new Cold War, trying to openly implement its idea of triumphalism,” he is quoted as saying.
“Where will that lead all of us?” he said.
“I can no longer say that this Cold War will not lead to a ‘Hot War.’ I fear that they could risk it,” Gorbachev said, referring to the United States. “All you hear is about sanctions towards Russia from America and the European Union. Have they totally lost their heads? The U.S. has been totally ‘lost in the jungle’ and is dragging us there as well.”
