โšก๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Russia Foreign Minister LAVROV: "To tell the truth, we no longer have any illusions about converging with Europe, being accepted as part of the โ€œcommon European home,โ€ or creating a โ€œcommon spaceโ€ with the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ EU. All these declarations made in European capitals have turned out to be a myth and a false-flag operation.

The latest developments have clearly shown that the ramified network of mutually beneficial trade, economic and investment ties between ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Russia and the ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ EU were not a safety net. The EU did not think twice about sacrificing our energy cooperation, which was a pillar of their prosperity.

We have seen that the European elites have no independence and always do whatever they are ordered to do in ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Washington, even if this results in direct damage to their own citizens. We take this reality into account in our foreign policy planning."

"They have enough FABs, They just add wings and GPS, and that's it. They are there, they just need to be upgraded. The cost of the issue is much less than to produce missiles."

FABs are standard unguided ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Russian bombs. Russia developed guidance kits that convert FABs into precision guided stand-off bombs.

There were reports of Russian glide bomb strikes on Ukrainian army positions in Sumy.

"The ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง UK's announcement about the depleted uranium munition supplies to the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Kiev regime is changing the situation. Now, neither the neighbouring states, nor the states of the region will be able to control the impact of the used guns and shells. It simply cannot be done.

You can participate in target marking or intelligence exchanges, or ask ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Washington to control the Kiev regime so that it does not hit the territory of ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ฑ Poland, and does not shoot down objects over the territories of other countries. You can do anything. But you cannot say anything to radiation. Itโ€™s impossible to make a bargain with it, or to put it under control.

We went through the tragedy of Chernobyl and ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Fukushima. We know that both tragedies had dire consequences that last to this day. They are of a different scale, but the lesson is the same: it is impossible to strike a deal with radiation."

โšก๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ Western countries won't be able to deliver enough weapons in ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine to outgun ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Russia, President Vladimir Putin has assured.

"Threats exist, of course. When weapons are supplied to a country we are in conflict with, this is always a threat. As far how they can be assessed, of course we know about the plans to supply them," Putin said in an interview with Russian TV on Saturday, responding to a question about whether Moscow considers Western arms deliveries to Kiev a "threat" to national security.

Emphasizing that Russia will not allow for the "excessive militarization" of its economy to match Western arms aid being sent to Kiev, Putin said that to date, Moscow hasn't reduced civilian construction, health care, education and infrastructure development, but the West will be forced to do so.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Putin disagreed with the claim being made by Western officials and media that the depleted uranium weapons being sent to ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Kiev won't result in any health-related issues or other negative consequences.

"This, of course, is not the case. The fact is that they do not belong to the category of weapons of mass destruction. That's true. But the core of the projectile with depleted uranium (different materials can be used, it is used for armor-piercing purposes) still generates so-called radiation dust, and in this sense it of course amounts to a weapon of the most dangerous kind," he said.

Putin also commented on matters of strategic security, saying Moscow and Minsk had agreed in principle that, without violating its obligations under the New START Treaty, ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Russia will be able to deploy tactical nuclear weapons on ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡พ Belarusian territory.

"We agreed that - in this sense, [Belarusian President] Alexander Grigorievich [Lukashenko] is right when he says 'listen, we are your closest allies. Why do the Americans place nukes on their allies' territory?' They also engage, by the way, in the training of their pilots to use these weapons if necessary. We have agreed that if necessary, we will do the same thing, without violating our obligations - I would like to emphasize - without violating our international obligations on the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons," Putin said.

The next day, right before our meeting with the press, we learned about this story that the ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง UK is planning to send depleted uranium shells. It's as if the West did this on purpose to somehow disrupt our negotiations or influence them somehow."

โšก๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ President Volodymyr Zelensky has said Ukraine's counter-offensive against ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ Russia cannot start until Western allies send more military support.

He told a ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Japanese newspaper he would not send his troops to the frontlines without more tanks, artillery and Himars rocket launchers.

He said the situation in eastern Ukraine was "not good".

"We are waiting for ammunition to arrive from our partners," he said. "We can't start yet, we can't send our brave soldiers to the front line without tanks, artillery and long-range rockets."

He added: "If you have the political will, you can find a way to help us. We are at war and can't wait."
