This is just flat out wrong. Frameworks provide a layer (or multiple layers) of abstraction to make code organization and maintenance easier. How that translates into "guaranteed to be writing spaghetti" I have no idea; those frameworks can't force you into their coding structure and you can still write absolutely horrible spaghetti in them (I've seen some really bad angular that should have been simply set on fire and re-written).

In fact you can write horrible spaghetti using basically any language or framework. It comes down to discipline and experience, in my opinion, when you want to write clean and easy-to-maintain code.
