Russia warned about direct conflict with NATO

21 Oct 2022 - 11:41

While NATO continues to directly and extensively provide all kinds of military aid to Ukraine for its war with Russia, Moscow has warned of the high risk of direct Russian conflict with NATO.


Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Maria Zakharova; A spokesman for the Russian Foreign Ministry says that NATO has moved closer to the "dangerous line of direct military conflict with Russia" by providing arms and military support to Ukraine.
 
On Thursday, October 20, he said in a press conference that NATO member countries are competing with each other in supplying weapons and ammunition, providing information, training personnel and issuing instructions for carrying out combat operations to Kiev.
 
The spokesperson of the Russian Foreign Ministry added that Western military support for Ukraine has reached 42.3 billion dollars, of which 28.3 billion dollars have been provided by the United States.
 
This is despite the fact that not long ago the defense ministers of nearly 50 NATO member countries gathered in Brussels, the headquarters of this organization, and pledged military and financial support to Ukraine.
 
US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said at the meeting held on October 12 that these countries are united and determined to help Ukraine strengthen its defense capabilities and meet its immediate and long-term needs.
 
The American defense minister had expressed hope that with the support of the Ukrainian army, this army would be able to take back its territory from Russia in the coming winter.
 
While the West is helping the continuation of the war in Ukraine by providing military aid, it accuses Iran of providing combat and kamikaze drones to Russia to target Ukraine's infrastructure and sanctions Iranian officials and institutions.
