The US May Become a Party to the Russia-Ukraine Conflict, Peskov Says

In the near future, the United States may become a party to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. This statement was made by Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of the Russian President, as quoted by RIA Novosti.

The Kremlin is responding to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s comment that American authorities would not prohibit Kyiv from using Western weapons to strike regions such as Donbas, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia, which are preparing to join Russia.

“We view Blinken’s statement negatively. De facto, the American side is increasingly entering this conflict. The American side is close to becoming a party to this conflict, which is extremely dangerous,” Peskov stated.

It is noteworthy that from September 23-27, referendums were held in the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics, as well as in the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions, regarding their joining Russia. According to the processing of 100% of ballots in the DPR, 99.23% voted in favor of joining the Russian Federation, 98.42% in the LPR, 87.05% in Kherson, and 93.11% in Zaporizhzhia.
