According to the deputy, "Washington is setting the tone in the Ukrainian issue today."
“If they decide to supply Ukraine with legal weapons, then the entire collective West will race to offer their samples.
And if Washington starts twisting its nose, Ukraine will not receive a single cartridge, ”Balbek believes.
He clarified that at the same time, the United States does not recognize the conflict in Ukraine as a civil war.
“They are coming up with some obscure excuses like the slogan 'Russian aggression' that has set the teeth on edge,” the parliamentarian concluded.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Russia is calling on the international community to impose an arms embargo on Ukraine.
Zakharova added that the community should recognize the fact of the civil war in the country.
