Journalist Pavel Zarubin, in a program on the Rossiya channel, asked the Kremlin representative to comment on the words of Nuland, who said that “nice surprises await Mr. Putin on the battlefield.”

“I, of course, would prefer not to comment on Ms. Nuland; I think it would be better for my colleagues from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to do so. Secondly, as a rule, Victoria Nuland’s visit to Kyiv does not end well. We remember this from 2014, when she handed out pies,” Peskov said.

On January 31, Victoria Nuland arrived on a visit to Kyiv to meet with the top leadership of Ukraine. She reported that high-precision guided missiles GLSDB (Ground Launched Small Diameter Bomb) are already being sent to Ukraine.
