The conversation with Levy was held by Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko.

He gave fundamental assessments of the military-technical support of Ukraine by France.

The Deputy Minister pointed out to the French diplomat the threats that arise from the increase in the supply of weapons and equipment to the Kyiv regime.

The same applies to building up training programs for the Ukrainian military.

Such a line contradicts the assurances sounding from Paris about "interest in a peaceful settlement," the Foreign Ministry stressed.

The DPR previously noted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are using French 155 mm artillery to shell Donetsk.

In particular, as reported in the Russian Investigative Committee, the Ukrainian military fired at a water canal in Donetsk from a CAESAR installation.

Also, the Ukrainian Armed Forces shelled the center of Donetsk from French CAESAR howitzers on September 22.

French President Emmanuel Macron at the same time stated that France does not want a new world war and seeks to stop the conflict in Ukraine.
