Moscow has repeatedly stated that the West, by continuing to supply Ukraine with weapons, is helping to prolong the conflict, and the Russian Foreign Ministry has stated that NATO countries are “playing with fire” by supplying Ukraine with weapons, and the Kremlin has pointed out that pumping Ukraine with weapons from the West does not contribute to success negotiations.Ukraine with Russia and will have a negative impact.
