The Russian ambassador pointed to the desire of the United States to get deeper involved in the Ukrainian crisis

Washington continues to be drawn deeper and deeper into the abyss of the Ukrainian crisis. This will lead to even more tragedy, said Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov.

According to him, the new arms supplies to Kyiv in the amount of $325 million are “an iron bat against Russia.” At the same time, Washington is not interested in the fate of Ukraine as such, as well as the idea of ​​negotiations.

“The strategists from the United States are not given to understand that no supply of weapons or the involvement of mercenaries will be able to turn the tide in the course of a special military operation. As in previous months, the “best in the world” Western equipment will once again turn into a pile of twisted metal”Antonov said. The statement is in Telegramembassy channel.

He added that American politicians need to show “success” in the fight against the Russian Federation before the 2024 presidential campaign.

Earlier, Anatoly Antonov said that at the moment Russia is at the forefront of the fight against the hegemonic world order, as well as on the right side of history.

Recall that the Russian Foreign Ministry previously stated that the United States is dragging out the conflict in Ukraine as much as possible and making it more and more bloody with its increased supply of weapons to its territory.

The Russian authorities have repeatedly stressed that any shipments of weapons supplied by Western countries to Ukraine would be a legitimate target for the Russian Aerospace Forces. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted that the supply of weapons would not stop, but would prolong the conflict in Ukraine, and called the position of Western countries “harmful” and “counterproductive.”
