Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has announced an expansion of the war in Ukraine, saying Russia's military focus is no longer "only" the east of the country.
Speaking on Wednesday to Russian state media, Lavrov said their objectives will continue expanding if the West keeps supplying Ukraine with long-range powerful weapons.
In the clearest indication yet of Russia's intention to expand the battlefield after five months of the brutal invasion, Lavrov said the nation's military targets now go farther than just the so-called People’s Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk.
