“Including Russia, the United States and NATO allies should get together, calm down and look for a way out of the current situation, based on principles that would meet each other’s legitimate concerns,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

According to the diplomat, peace and security in Europe can only be achieved in this way.

The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, said earlier that the EU allocated the fifth tranche of assistance to Ukraine for the needs of the army in the amount of €500 million.

On July 9, U.S. President Joe Biden ordered additional military aid to be provided to Ukraine in the amount of up to $400 million.

In addition, the United States transferred to Ukraine 12 of the promised 20 HIMARS MLRS and trained more than 200 Ukrainian military personnel in their use.
