US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that Washington does not object to Kyiv to use Western weapons against territories that may become part of the Russian Federation after the so -called “referendums”, Russian media write.
He recalled that the United States and many other countries have stated that they never recognize the annexation of Ukrainian territories. According to the head of the American Foreign Ministry, Ukraine has “the absolute right to defend itself throughout its territory, including regaining a territory that was illegally captured in one way or another by Russia.”
“We and weapons and military equipment that we and many other countries provide them are very effectively used for these purposes, as we have just seen in the northeast of Ukraine and as we see in the south. And again: again: again: There is absolutely no change in the territory that is annexed by Russia as a question for us or Ukrainians. Ukrainians will continue what they need to do to return the lands taken from them, ”said the diplomat.
