According to him, the United States has been monitoring the risks of escalation since the beginning of the war, and this will not change. "We will always be concerned that aggression in Ukraine could lead to an escalation on the European continent," Kirby said.

"I think it is too early to know what is happening in the Kursk region. I will tell you that the Russians have moved some resources to this territory to try to prevent what the Ukrainians are doing. How effective it will be, what the result will be, we don't know yet. So it's too early to know whether what's happening in the Kursk region is something that has the potential to escalate. But it is something that we continue to be concerned about," Kirby said.
