Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the arms supply was a direct way to escalate tensions and raise the level of fighting.

“This is a direct way to escalate tensions and raise the level (of the fighting). But again, this will not change the course of events,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters, referring to the possible launch of missiles with long-range capabilities. Responding to a question about US supply.

Ukraine has urged allies to supply it with more powerful weapons.
