Putin threatens the West with consequences if Ukraine is allowed to use foreign weapons against Russia
Kyiv • UNN
Putin threatens the West with serious consequences and a potential “global conflict” if Ukraine is allowed to strike Russia with long-range weapons supplied by the West.
Russian dictator Vladimir Putin has threatened the West that Ukraine's strikes on Russian territory with Western weapons could have serious consequences and lead to a “global conflict.
This was reported by UNN with reference to Reuters.
Continued escalation could have serious consequences. If those serious consequences occur in Europe, how will the United States respond, given our strategic arms parity?
The Russian president said that Ukrainian strikes on Russia with long-range weapons would require Western satellites, intelligence and military assistance, so the West would be directly involved. According to Putin, the deployment of French troops to Ukraine would be a step toward a “global conflict.
It's hard to say - do they want a global conflict?
Speaking about NATO members in Europe, Putin said that small countries there "should know what they are playing with" because they have small territories and very dense populations.
"This is the factor that they should keep in mind before talking about striking deep into Russian territory," Putin said in a "threatening" tone.
