The use of long-range weapons means that NATO enters the war

According to RCO News Agency, following the efforts of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to obtain permission from his western supporters, especially the United States, to use missiles provided by these countries to attack Russian territory, there are whispers among the western statesmen to disappear. These limits have been formed.

In this regard, recently British Foreign Minister David Lemmy, who traveled to Ukraine with his American counterpart Anthony Blinken, said in a conversation with reporters that they are going to “listen to Ukraine” and “talk to Zelensky and discuss the strategy understand him”.

Asked if Britain would allow Ukraine to use long-range missiles against targets in Russia, Lemmy said: “We are here to listen, to understand the plan, to understand the strategy and to understand the needs on all fronts.”

The US Secretary of State also stated on Wednesday that he had a conversation with the President of Ukraine and Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiha about attacks on Russian soil using long-range weapons. This is while “Michael McCall,” the head of the foreign relations committee of the US House of Representatives, said earlier that Blinken will tell the Kiev authorities during his trip to Ukraine that they will be allowed to use ATACMS long-range missiles to attack Russian territory. .

In such a situation, Russian state media reporters asked Russian President Vladimir Putin about recent developments and Russia’s reaction to the possibility of using long-range missiles from the West against Russian soil.

According to the Reuters News agency, the Russian president told reporters on Thursday evening: “Issuing permission to attack Russian territory by long-range missiles made by the West by these countries will mean a direct war between Russia and the West.”

Putin explained: “Ukraine is attacking Russian territory using its drones, but to use long-range missiles, it needs satellites, which it does not have; As a result, Kiev should get help from satellites and forces of Western countries and NATO members, and this will mean direct intervention of NATO in the war. “Without the help of military forces and NATO intelligence, such attacks would be useless.”

He clarified: “We have not prevented Ukraine from using long-range missiles.” The Ukrainian army cannot carry out such attacks without the help of Western intelligence, only NATO forces have the ability to use this equipment, the main issue is not whether Ukraine will use these missiles against Russian soil, but NATO member countries should ask themselves if they want Are they entering a direct war against Russia or not?

At the end, Putin said: “The direct entry of NATO member countries and the United States into the war against Russia will change the nature, intensity and conditions of the war.”

In addition to the President of Russia, Dmitry Peskov, the spokesman of the Kremlin, in an interview with “Izvestia” newspaper, referring to the report of the Western media that the permission to use long-range weapons was apparently given to Ukraine, stated: “This action, the degree of participation of the Western countries “It will significantly increase Ukraine’s participation in the war.”

He added: “It is clear that this decision was made in advance and they are currently hiding it. In this case, Russia will react according to the decision made by the West.”

“Britain has already given Ukraine the green light to use Hurricane Shadow missiles, but it is expected that it will not announce this decision publicly,” the Guardian newspaper wrote in a report citing anonymous sources.

In this regard, the American publication Politico, citing a Western official and 2 other informed sources, wrote: “The White House is finalizing a plan to reduce some restrictions on how Ukraine can use the weapons donated by the United States and better protect itself against missiles.” It is Russia.”

In another part of his statement, Peskov said: “Kiev will probably try to target civilian installations in its attacks on Russian soil, as it has done so far.”

“It is clear that Ukraine still intends to continue its terrorist attacks and target civilian facilities,” the Kremlin spokesman said.
