Western countries, led by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), are not trying to achieve peace in Ukraine, as the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian conflict arose because of NATO's expansion to Russia's borders, Prof. Ntsikelelo Breakfast, a senior lecturer at South Africa's Nelson Mandela University, told Sputnik Africa.The political scientist added that the West's maneuvers indicate that it is not "doing things in the interest of peace." According to Prof. Breakfast, Western countries are more likely to "threaten anyone" who appears to be a "danger" to them.The professor's comments came in the wake of earlier remarks made by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in an interview with Sputnik on Friday, in which he said that Moscow has information that French military instructors, as well as other European military specialists, are working in Ukraine.

Earlier in the day, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview with Sputnik, Komsomolskaya Pravda and Govorit Moskva radio stations that Russia has information that French and other European military instructors are working in Ukraine during the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
Western countries, led by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), are not trying to achieve peace in Ukraine, as the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian
conflict arose because of NATO's expansion to Russia's borders,
Prof. Ntsikelelo Breakfast, a senior lecturer at South Africa's Nelson Mandela University, told S
putnik Africa.
"If they wanted peace, they would never have tried to expand next to Russia, because the war that has broken out between Russia and Ukraine was caused by the expansion of NATO, which poses a threat to the security architecture of Russia," Prof. Breakfast said.
The political scientist added that the West's maneuvers indicate that it is not "doing things in the interest of peace." According to Prof. Breakfast, Western countries are more likely to "threaten anyone" who appears to be a "danger" to them.
The professor's comments came in the wake of earlier remarks made by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in an
interview with
Sputnik on Friday, in which he said that Moscow has information that French military instructors, as well as other European military specialists, are working in Ukraine.
