Details

In particular, she answered journalists' questions about the possible increase in tension in connection with the events in the Kursk region and the Pentagon's concerns about this. 

No (the United States is not concerned about a possible escalation - ed.) because, at the end of the day, Ukraine is fighting for its sovereign territory, which has been invaded by its neighbor. So, if we want to de-escalate tensions, as we've said from the beginning, the best way to do that is for Putin to make a decision today to withdraw his troops from Ukraine

- Singh said.

According to her, Ukraine will do everything possible to continue to return its sovereign territory. She also emphasized that the events in the Kursk region fit into this scenario.
