The Washington Post reported that the Russian Federation had sent a note to the United States due to the supply of weapons to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The Russian Foreign Ministry confirmed media reports about sending a note to the United States on arms supplies to Ukraine. On Friday, April 15, writes Interfax.
This information was confirmed by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
“Yes. In all countries,” he said, answering the question of journalists whether the Washington Post publication, which says Moscow sent a note to Washington because of the supply of arms to Ukraine, is true.
According to the WP, Russia warns that arms deliveries exacerbate the situation in Ukraine and could lead to “unpredictable consequences.”
The letter came after President Biden approved a dramatic expansion of weapons supplies to Ukraine, an $ 800 million package that includes 155mm howitzers, drones and armored vehicles, as well as additional man-portable anti- aircraft and anti-tank weapons.
A document entitled “On Russia’s Concern over Massive Supplies of Arms and Military Equipment to the Kiev Regime,” written in Russian with a provided translation, was sent to the State Department of the Russian Embassy in Washington.
At the same time, Russia has accused its allies of violating the “difficult principle” of transferring weapons to conflict zones and ignoring the “threat of high-precision weapons falling into the hands of radical nationalists, extremists and bandit formations in Ukraine. “
“We call on the United States and its allies to stop the irresponsible militarization of Ukraine, which involves unintended consequences for regional and international security,” the note said.
It was previously reported that continued arms shipments to Ukraine could lead to the extinction of some of its types in the United States and other Western countries.
