Russia asks US, Turkiye to clarify Ukraine arms plans

The Russian Foreign Ministry has requested clarifications from the US and Turkiye regarding reports of plans to supply weapons to Ukraine.

Axar.az reports, citing TASS, that Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova made the remarks.

"The Russian Foreign Ministry has requested clarifications from Washington and Ankara regarding information released by the US Congress," according to Zakharova’s commentary regarding US-Turkish plans to supply weapons to the Kyiv regime.

The US and Turkiye can still take a sober look at their plans to supply large-scale arms shipments to Kyiv, the official noted. "It is not yet too late to soberly assess the situation," she said.

"Pumping more weaponry into [Vladimir] Zelensky’s junta is incapable of having any significant impact on the course of the special military operation as it unfolds according to Russia’s just scenario. However, multifaceted damage resulting from such supplies is inevitable. It is not merely a matter of casualties and destruction that the authorities in Kyiv seek to escalate, but also of the serious harm done to our bilateral relations with Washington and Ankara," Zakharova noted.
