Moscow/Washington: Russian Foreign Ministry has warned that Russia and US are on the brink of direct conflict due to the dangerous and short-sighted policies of the United States. A few days ago, the United States accused Russia of being responsible for deteriorating relations between the two countries. In response, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova blamed the United States, saying the US alone was responsible for the rising tension. On Sunday, Anatoly Antonov, Russian Ambassador to the United States, also criticized that the United States has not yet come out of the Cold War logic regarding its policy toward Russia.
Against the background of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the United States and Western countries have opened a strong front against Russia. More and more countries are being forced to join their group by creating an anti-Russian climate worldwide. At the same time, efforts are underway to weaken the Russian economy and President Putin’s government by imposing massive sanctions on Russia. However, Russia has given a befitting reply to the ongoing actions of the United States and other Western countries. Therefore, US-Russia ties are consistently under tension. Along with reconciliation, many agreements between the two countries also have been terminated.
The United States and its allies are blaming Russia for this. Last week, US State Department spokesperson Ned Price accused Russia, saying that their actions were responsible for making relations unstable and uncertain between the United States and Russia. Price also claimed that US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was in regular contact with the Russian Foreign Minister. However, the Russian spokesperson has categorically rejected the US allegations and claims.
“The statement that the US spokesperson is in contact with the Russian foreign minister is a blatant lie. The two ministers last spoke at the end of July,” replied Russian spokesperson Zakharova. She also pointed out that Russia is sincerely trying to maintain stable relations with the United States.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zakharova accused ‘The United States is increasingly acting as an instigator of tensions. The US wishes that its supremacy should continue under any circumstances. The United States is not even keen to discuss security guarantees. The current problem has been created due to this reluctance of the United States.’ Zakharova also claimed that Russia is still ready to hold talks with the United States at various levels to avoid escalation of the conflict.
Meanwhile, it has come to light that Ukraine has used US-made HARM missiles in its attack on Russian territory. Russian forces reportedly shot down four US-made HARM missiles. Russian sources said the missile attack was attempted in Belgorod on the Russia-Ukraine border. Besides, Russia has already warned that US weapons and other systems supplied to Ukraine will be targeted by it.
