Russia has cautioned the United States that a global conflict, World War III, would not be limited to Europe if Ukraine is allowed to strike deep into Russian territory with Western missiles. Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated that the West is “playing with fire” by considering such actions, which could lead to a broader war involving nuclear powers.
Lavrov emphasized that Russia’s nuclear doctrine is being clarified, and the country will respond accordingly to any threats. He criticized the West for underestimating the risks of a global conflict, saying they view it as a localized European issue.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has urged allies to be more decisive in their support, as Ukraine faces restrictions on using Western-supplied weapons. Russia has accused the West of involvement in Ukraine’s recent attack on the Kursk region, which Ukraine claims was a successful operation.
