Nigel Farage Claims NATO, EU Provoked Russia's Invasion of Ukraine in BBC Interview
Jun 22, 2024, 12:08 PM
Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform UK party, has sparked controversy by claiming that the West provoked Russia's invasion of Ukraine. In a BBC Panorama interview with Nick Robinson, Farage stated that the eastward expansion of NATO and the European Union gave Russian President Vladimir Putin a reason to go to war. Farage's comments have drawn widespread criticism from political figures, including Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer, who have condemned his remarks as dangerous and misguided. Farage has defended his position, asserting that while the invasion was Putin's fault, Western actions contributed to the conflict. He also reiterated his previous statement that he admired Putin as a political operator.
