Long-range Missiles: US adding fuel to fire, says Moscow
The US is “adding fuel to the fire” by supplying weapons to Kyiv, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Wednesday in response to President Joe Biden’s decision to provide more advanced missile systems to Ukraine.
“We believe that the United States is purposefully and diligently adding fuel to the fire,” Peskov told reporters on a regular conference call.
The Ukrainian authorities have long asked the United States to supply high-tech, medium-range rocket systems. Biden said Tuesday the US is providing Ukraine “more advanced rocket systems and munitions” as its war with Russia grinds on.
“Such supplies do not contribute to the Ukrainian leadership’s willingness to resume peace negotiations,” Peskov said.
Peskov also added the Kremlin does not trust Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s words that Kyiv would not use multiple launch rocket systems to attack the Russian territory if they receive them from the US.
