The United States and other NATO countries intend to continue the war with Russia, which is fraught with serious consequences for them, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned.
The Kremlin spokesman drew the media’s attention to the escalation of the situation by NATO member countries and especially the United States. He emphasized that these countries "themselves intend to continue the war" with Russia - "a war in the literal and figurative sense".
"This will, of course, will inevitably entail its consequences. It will ultimately be very harmful to the interests of those countries which have opted for the path of escalation," Peskov said, TASS reported.
In his opinion, NATO countries, primarily the United States, are consciously heading for a new round of tensions and provoking Ukraine to continue a senseless war with Russia.
"The North Atlantic Alliance’s member-countries, the United States in particular, other European capitals in recent days and weeks were coming close to a new round of escalating tensions. They are doing this on purpose," the Kremlin spokesman stated. He noted that Moscow "hears quite a few bellicose statements."
"This is nothing but a policy of provoking a new level of tensions. We realize that this negative trend in their approach unfortunately persists. They provoke Ukraine in every possible way to continue this senseless war," Peskov stated.
He was commenting on numerous statements, including those by Washington, about Ukraine's ability to attack Russian territory with Western weapons.

Budapest will speak out against a NATO mission in Ukraine at an informal meeting of the bloc’s top diplomats in Prague on May 30-31, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said.
ReplyDelete"NATO’s decision to strengthen its coordinating role in weapons supplies and Ukrainian troop training means a step beyond the red line that we drew ourselves two years ago. Preparations for a NATO mission in Ukraine has been in full swing in recent weeks but this runs counter to the idea of alliance because it was created for defense purposes and even its secretary general said earlier in the week that none of the NATO allies is in danger," Szijjarto told Hungarian journalists following a Council of the EU meeting in Brussels.
