A tough military response to any further attack on the territory. Russia’s foreign ministry on Tuesday threatened to make a “harsh response” to Ukraine’s attack on its territory.
“The trend of continuous supply of Ukrainian weapons, including heavy weapons, threatens the security of the European continent and provokes instability,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters, according to AFP. The remarks were in response to British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss’s call on the 27th for Ukraine’s allies to “increase as soon as possible” weapons production, including combat vehicles and aircraft, to help Kyiv fight Russia.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova also said on the 28th: ”The West is openly calling for Kyiv to attack Russia, including using weapons received from NATO countries.” She said: “The Ukrainian military has committed crimes once morest Russian territory. There is no doubt regarding the activity, and I hope that Kyiv and the Western countries will take the statement of our Ministry of Defense seriously, further provocation will inevitably lead to a harsh response from Russia. I advise you not to test our patience, Russia is determined to achieve the stated goals of the special military operation.”
After Russia began its aggression once morest Ukraine two months ago, it recently reported a series of attacks by the Ukrainian military on the border area with Ukraine. Since Russia invaded Ukraine, where several military installations have caught fire or exploded, Russia has claimed responsibility for some of the incidents. The Russian Defense Ministry has warned that if such attacks continue, Moscow will attack decision-making centers in Ukraine, including locations it believes are assisted by Western advisers.
Russia has accused Ukrainian troops of shelling a village called Klimovo in the border region of Bryansk on the 13th of this month; another border region of Russia in Belgorod Province (Belgorod) reported several times on the 27th. Ukraine did not directly admit that it was the mastermind behind the explosion, but only claimed that these incidents were retaliation. However, the United Kingdom, a member of NATO, argued that Ukraine’s attack on the Russian military’s logistics was justified, causing Russia’s dissatisfaction.
