Further supplies of Western weapons to the Kiev regime have the potential to set off uncontrollable escalation, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.
Western countries "do not care anymore, apparently, what will happen to Ukraine and Ukrainians. But the fact that this has the potential for uncontrollable escalation apparently has not hit home yet," she said at a news conference, commenting on recent deliveries of Western weapons to Ukraine.
According to Zakharova, the ongoing military aid to Ukraine reaffirms the West is seeking to continue the conflict and "turn up the heat."
No Russian regions can be disputed in any talks on Ukraine, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told a news briefing.
ReplyDelete"Russian regions are integral parts of the Russian Federation - see our Constitution - and cannot be disputed," the Russian diplomat said, commenting on a statement by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan who said that the return of Crimea was allegedly a provision of international law.
According to Zakharova, Russia keeps hearing similar statements from Turkey, ranging from senior officials to experts. "All these years, we have been making our position clear to the Turkish side through official channels, publicly, too. They know," she said.
