Putin: Equipping Ukraine is a direct participation in the war

According to Webangah News quoted by Mehr news agency quoted by Sputnik, the Russian president warned the West about participating in the war in Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin announced on Thursday that allowing Ukraine to launch a long-range missile attack would mean direct involvement of the West in the conflict.

The Russian president said that Russia is aware of the number of weapons that the West has delivered to Ukraine.

According to Putin, the range of the Russian X101 missile significantly exceeds the range of European-made systems.

The Russian president said that Moscow had to test the Orshnik missile in response to long-range missile attacks in Bryansk and Kursk regions.

Putin emphasized that the Uransk missile system is not a weapon of mass destruction, but a highly accurate weapon that does not carry a nuclear payload.

The Russian president added that those who carry out the orders of the usurpers of power in Ukraine are complicit in their crimes.
