He acknowledged that it would indeed be an escalation – a very serious one. Ukraine would have nothing to do with it. This would simply cause enormous damage to the prospects of normalizing relations between Russia and the U.S. and getting out of the complete deadlock into which these relations were driven by the Biden administration,” Lavrov said

Lavrov: Supplying Ukraine with Tomahawks would lead to a very serious escalation between Russia and the U.S.

“Yes, there have been statements about Tomahawks, but in this series of statements regarding the possible supply of Tomahawks, President Trump, among other comments, mentioned that he does not want escalation.

He acknowledged that it would indeed be an escalation – a very serious one. Ukraine would have nothing to do with it. This would simply cause enormous damage to the prospects of normalizing relations between Russia and the U.S. and getting out of the complete deadlock into which these relations were driven by the Biden administration,” Lavrov said in an interview with a Russian newspaper.

Lavrov also commented on a recent Financial Times article about the U.S. allegedly supplying Ukraine with intelligence since the summer to strike Russian energy infrastructure ( ft.com/content/f9f42c10-3a30…).

“There’s a lot being written, and far from all of these ‘alarm bells’ are confirmed. But of course, we have taken notice. I instructed my staff to ask the Americans to comment on these Financial Times reports,” he said. x.com/Gerashchenko_en/status/1977491093492031811
