尽管俄方一再重申俄罗斯没有进攻乌克兰的计划,但以美国为首的北约先是添油加醋,如今又火上浇油,导致俄乌紧张局势持续升温。25日,美国又向乌克兰提供了一批武器,而这已经是短时间内美国向乌克兰提供的第三批武器了。与此同时,美国总统拜登甚至公开威胁说,不排除直接对俄罗斯总统普京实施制裁的可能。

第三批美国军事援助运抵乌克兰

  美国驻乌克兰大使馆当天表示,作为对乌克兰价值2亿美元军事援助框架内的一部分,美国第三批武器装备已运抵乌克兰,共计79吨,其中包括300件“标枪”反坦克设备。此前,该框架内的第一批和第二批军事援助分别于22日、23日运抵乌克兰。美国驻乌克兰大使馆称将继续向乌克兰提供必要支持。

  俄罗斯总统新闻秘书佩斯科夫表示,俄罗斯正密切关注美国在乌克兰问题上的最新动作,美方无论从信息还是实际行动上,都在加剧乌克兰周边紧张局势。

 美宣称对俄更强力制裁 或直接制裁普京

  除了向乌克兰提供武器装备,美国还在威胁对俄罗斯展开制裁。据俄罗斯卫星通讯社25日报道,美国白宫的一名高级官员表示,如果乌克兰局势恶化,美国及其盟友将对俄罗斯实施金融制裁的力度将远超2014年乌克兰危机爆发时,当年的制裁一度让俄罗斯卢布贬值一半。此外,美国总统拜登同一天在接受记者提问时公开声称,在乌克兰局势升级的情况下,会考虑对普京个人实施制裁。

俄方警告制裁国家元首恐引发俄美断交

  早在本月初,美国参议院起草的对俄制裁方案,就包括了俄乌局势恶化后对普京在内的俄罗斯高级官员实施广泛制裁。俄罗斯总统新闻秘书佩斯科夫当时警告说,如果美国对俄罗斯国家元首实施制裁,将是超出界限的行为,恐怕会导致俄美两国断交,俄罗斯时刻准备着保护自己的国家利益。他强调,美国如果迈出这一步的话将铸成“大错”。佩斯科夫还向美国官方提了一个问题:“能否举例说明,制裁什么时候解决过问题?”

美是否应增兵欧洲?美国民众:先管好美国自己的事

  In addition to frequently sending military supplies to Ukraine, the United States said on the 24th that 8,500 US soldiers have been placed on high alert, saying that they will be deployed to Europe if necessary.

How do the American people feel about whether the United States should send troops?

Russia Today TV conducted street interviews in several cities in the United States.

  Russia Today TV reporter: Do you think the US should send troops to Ukraine?

  The American public: No, I think we should see how things develop first.

  American people: I don't think it's a good idea, we should take care of our own business.

  American people: We should not send troops, we should take care of our own affairs, and we have enough problems that we need to solve urgently.

America's own affairs have not been settled yet, and we should not worry about other people's affairs.

  The delivery of weapons, "mobilization of troops", and various actions of the United States "add fuel to the fire" of the already tense situation in Russia and Ukraine.

  Russia Today TV reporter: How likely do you think the United States will be involved in another war?

  American people: I don't like war at all, and I hope it doesn't happen.

  American people: I don't know, because I don't know much about this, I just hope there won't be a war.
