Sergey Lavrovchancellor of Russiaassured that the possibility of reach a diplomatic agreement with Ukraine is very far away, especially because The tension continues to escalate and the attacks do not stop.
Furthermore, the influence and American support about the country he commands Zelenskymakes the truce even more difficult. In fact, last week missiles manufactured in the North American country were launched towards the surroundings of Moscow.
The word of Sergei Lavrov
During an interview, the Russian foreign minister stated: “Judging by what is happening on the battlefield, we still we are far from a political and diplomatic solution to the crisis. Washington and its allies remain obsessed with achieving a strategic defeat of Russia.
Lavrov described the latest missile attacks on Russian territory as a “climbing movement”adding that “Moscow’s warnings about a proportionate response to such actions had been ignored.
“No escalation by the enemy will force us to give up achieving our objectives. As the president has said Putin, we are prepared for any turn of eventsalthough we always prefer to resolve disputes through peaceful means,” he explained.
Russia launched its largest drone attack since the war with Ukraine began
The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskywarned this Tuesday that Russian Armed Forces released during the night more than 180 drones, as part of the escalation of the war. This number is a record figure that, according to the president, shows that the Kremlin is successfully managing to evade sanctions.
“Last night Russia attacked Ukraine and launched a record number of drones against our people, 188,” said the Ukrainian president through his X profile, sharing images of firefighters working to put out the fires caused by the projectiles in cities such as Ternopil.
Zelensky highlighted that although air defense systems managed to neutralize a large number of these drones, Many facilities and infrastructure were damaged after this new offensive by the Russian Army. He also focused on the dozens of “strange components” that these 188 drones contain.
“There are almost 16,000 components without which they would not fly,” he said, warning that these attacks “are only possible” thanks to the scheme that Russia has woven to evade sanctions. “Thank you to everyone in the world who is blocking those supplies, but we need to work more together to make sanctions work and force Russia to stop this war“he emphasized.
