After drones struck Moscow skyscrapers on Tuesday, the United States stated that it does not support assaults within Russia but claimed that Russia was to blame for the conflict with Ukraine.
“As a general matter, we do not support attacks inside of Russia. We have been focused on providing Ukraine with the equipment and training they need to retake their own sovereign territory,” a State Department spokesperson said as Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Sweden.
For the first time since Russia invaded Ukraine, residential buildings were targeted in Moscow, according to the spokeswoman, who added that the United States was still evaluating what took place there. Vladimir Putin, the president, blamed Kiev.
However, the spokeswoman for the State Department claimed that on Tuesday, Russia had attacked Kyiv by air for the 17th time in May.
“Russia started this unprovoked war against Ukraine. Russia could end it at any time by withdrawing its forces from Ukraine instead of launching brutal attacks against Ukraine’s cities and people every day.”
