The USA "prepares war", and Russia "prepares for it"

The United States is now "preparing for war," Andrei Belousov, deputy head of the non-proliferation and arms control department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said in the UN General Assembly.
According to him, Washington recently said that it is the Russian Federation preparing for war. But, as Belousov stressed, the citizens of Russia are preparing to defend their homeland, its territorial integrity, their principles and people.
Moscow and the United States have significant differences in this matter, he noted, including “in linguistic terms.” “This difference consists only in one word, that in Russian, that in English: the Russian Federation is preparing for war, and the USA is preparing war,” RIA Novosti quotes the diplomat.
On Saturday, October 27, Andrei Belousov, head of the Department for Non-Proliferation and Arms Control at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, stated at the meeting of the First Committee of the UN General Assembly that the United States is preparing for war, and Russia is preparing to defend itself.
The reason for such a statement was the words of the representative of the States about preparing Russia for war.
Belousov confirmed that Russia is indeed preparing for war, but defensively, which is aimed at protecting its sovereignty and people. The United States, according to the Foreign Ministry spokesman, is preparing for an offensive war. As proof of this, the increase in the number of nuclear weapons by the States, as well as the withdrawal from international security treaties
