At the same time, the chancellor Sergei Lavrov promised that Russia will respond accordingly to the firing of these projectiles, believing that the United States is involved in these attacks.
“If there is a launch of long-range missiles from Ukraine towards Russian territory, it means that These are operated by US military experts. We consider this a new phase of the West’s war against Russia and we will react accordingly,” Lavrov told reporters in Rio de Janeiroafter the G20 summit.
