Lavrov reminded the US that it has an extensive nuclear arsenal, and any threat to Russia increases the risk of launching nuclear missiles.
Russia has threatened the West with nuclear war if it gives Ukraine long-range missiles to strike inside its territories.
The warning came from Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. According to him, Ukraine's requests for permission from the West to strike deep into Russian territory with Storm Shadow missiles are blackmail.
" This is blackmail, it is an attempt to create the impression that the West wants to avoid excessive escalation, but in fact this is a ruse. The West does not want to avoid escalation, the West is looking for trouble, to put it bluntly. I think this is already clear to everyone ," he said.
Lavrov warned that the West is playing with fire. He reminded the US that it has an extensive nuclear arsenal and any threat to Russia increases the risk of launching nuclear missiles.
Since the war in Ukraine began in February 2022, Putin has repeatedly warned of the risk of a much wider war involving the world's biggest nuclear powers, although he has said Russia does not want a conflict with the alliance. NATO led by the USA.
" For a long time we have heard these speculations about allowing the use of not only Storm Shadow, but also US long-range missiles. By the way, an anonymous source in Washington said that discussions are taking place. The request of Ukraine is being examined in a generally positive way ," said Lavrov, who also gave the final warning: " Now we are once again confirming that playing with fire - and they are like little children playing with candles - is a very dangerous thing. dangerous to adults entrusted with nuclear weapons ."
Earlier, British government officials made contradictory statements about giving permission to Kiev to use Storm Shadow missiles for strikes deep into Russian territory. According to the British media, London is deliberately creating confusion to keep Russia in the dark about its real position, writes TASS. / Pamphlet
