The Kremlin on Thursday warned of escalation in Ukraine if the West gives the pro-Western country more weapons capable of striking Russia, APA reports citing The Moscow Times.
"Potentially, this is extremely dangerous, it will mean bringing the conflict to a whole new level, which, of course, will not bode well from the point of view of global and pan-European security," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
The warning comes on the eve of a key donor meeting as Western countries consider sending more powerful weapons to Ukraine.
