( ForUm ) - Foreign Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Ohryzko stated that recent statements of Russian authorities are considered by Ukraine as display of current domestic-policy processes in Russia. He said that today.

'We consider last statements from Russia as public display of current domestic-policy processes in Russia," he said.

"We do not want outer forces to try to split Ukrainian people and oppose one regions against others," he noted.

Ohryzko noted that Ukraine sees relations with Russia as pragmatic, equal, predictable and partnership relations, based on principles of International law and which are deprived of excessive ideology.

As a reminder, recently Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated that the USA is responsible for split of Ukraine for "prowestern" and "proRussian". "For some reason the USA decided that there was political proAmerican and proRussian elite in Ukraine. The USA decided to support proAmerican part of elite, so-called "orange revolutionaries", Putin said in an interview with Time magazine.
