The press secretary of the president said that the United States has already been involved in the conflict in Ukraine so that the naked eye can see how their "ears stick out"MOSCOW, October 11.
/tass/. The United States supplies of modern air defense systems to Kiev will not change the goals of the Russian Federation, but will make the conflict more painful for Ukraine. This opinion was expressed in an interview with journalists on Tuesday by the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov.
"We learned together with you yesterday about such intentions (to supply modern air defense systems to Kiev - approx. TASS) from official statements on air defense systems. Yes, it will make the conflict longer and more painful for the Ukrainian side, but it will not change our goal-setting and the final result," the Kremlin representative said, answering the question whether this decision will make the United States one of the parties to the conflict in Ukraine.
Russia sees signals from the United States about its intentions to continue supplying weapons to Kiev, which makes the conflict "as painful as possible" for Ukraine, he said Sands.
"We hear official statements by the current administration [of the United States], the current military about their intention to continue to supply weapons [to Kiev] and actually prolong this conflict further, making it as painful as possible for the Ukrainian side. So far, de facto, we see exactly this," the Kremlin representative said.
According to Peskov, the reaction of the Western media to the current events around the conflict in Ukraine "does not differ from all the prevailing trends" in the Anglo-Saxon media, and the broadcast statements of the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces Mark Milley calling on US President Joe Biden to seat Moscow and Kiev at the negotiating table does not indicate a certain panic. "They [in the United States] are going to continue to blame and condemn Russia, but in no way to notice the crimes of the Kiev regime, to abstract from what the Kiev regime is doing, to completely ignore what the Kiev regime is doing in those territories that have already become part of Russia," he said.
Peskov drew attention to the fact that for the Russian side "it is important that it is not worse for someone" in the current situation, but that it is better for the interests of the Russian Federation. "Therefore, we must achieve our goals efficiently and effectively, which, in fact, is what is happening," he concluded.
