Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov expressed concerns on Tuesday regarding the potential launch of longer-range missiles by the United States, stating that Moscow would interpret such actions as a 'new phase of war' orchestrated by Kyiv's Western allies. Lavrov made these remarks during a news conference at the G20 summit in Brazil, as reported by Russian state media TASS.
Lavrov emphasized that Russia would perceive the deployment of long-range missiles, guided by US military experts, as a significant escalation in hostilities by Western nations. This statement underscores the growing tensions between Russia and the West, particularly in the context of the conflict in Ukraine.
