These are unhealthy relationships. Maria Zakharova

Maria Zakharova, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, characterized the ties between NATO and the United States as traumatic and suggested they read the works of psychologist Sigmund Freud.

“What is the phenomenon? It is that all NATO members pay the United States to defend them—though it does not specify from whom, implicitly hinting at their eastern neighbor, Russia... But at the same time, it is the U.S. that threatens to take Greenland. In that case, I’m sorry, who are they protecting them from, if they are involved in such matters themselves? The most astonishing and deeply shocking thing is that despite collecting that 5% from everyone, the U.S. has been offended because they did not support in the Strait of Hormuz. These are unhealthy relationships, a somewhat traumatic nature of relationships. Here, they need Freud—just without alternatives. They should open the book and read,” Zakharova stated.
