Moscow - Russia has said that the West is playing with fire by allowing Ukraine to arm itself with its missiles and attacks inside Russia and has warned the US that World War III will not be limited to Europe.
According to the report of the foreign news agency Reuters, Ukraine invaded Russia's western Kursk region on August 6, and Ukrainian forces captured part of it in the largest foreign attack on Russia since World War II.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia will give a strong response to this attack.
Sergei Lavrov, who served as Russia's foreign minister for more than 20 years, said the West wants the Ukraine war to escalate and is inviting further deterioration by allowing Ukraine to use foreign weapons.
Since the beginning of the war in February 2022, Putin has been warning the West that the war is becoming more widespread due to the intervention of nuclear powers, but he has been making it clear that Russia will in any case join the US-led NATO alliance. Does not want any kind of conflict.
Speaking to reporters in Moscow, Sergei Lavrov said, "We are once again confirming that they are playing with fire and they are like little children playing with matches. It is a dangerous thing for those who are one or the other." Western countries are interested in nuclear weapons.
He said that the US is clearly involved in talks about the third world war, but may God save it, but if this happens, Europe will be particularly affected. However, he said that Russia is clarifying its nuclear narrative.
Note that Russia's Nuclear Narrative 2020 states that it will be used extensively when the president deems it best, whether to respond to an attack with nuclear or other destructive or conventional weapons, and when the state is threatened.
