If the United States makes the decision to supply Kiev with Tomahawk long-range missiles, it will do irreparable damage to US-Russian relations, the Russian Foreign Ministry’s official spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, said.
"A corresponding decision by the US administration, if made, will not just send the confrontation into a downward spiral, but also do irreparable damage to Russian-US relations, which have just begun to display certain elements indicating the resumption of a bilateral dialogue," the diplomat said, commenting on US President Donald Trump’s remarks that he "sort of made a decision" regarding the Tomahawks, but provided no details.
Moscow is hopeful that Washington will hear its message on the potential supply of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, Zakharova continued.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has clearly indicated that the transfer of Tomahawk missiles to Kiev will cause irreparable damage to relations between Moscow and Washington, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.
ReplyDelete"Again, the Russian leadership has repeatedly said this. The relevant decision of the US administration [to supply Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles], I repeat, if it is eventually adopted, will not only be fraught with a spiral of confrontation but will also cause irreparable damage to Russian-US relations, which have just begun to show elements of resuming bilateral dialogue," Zakharova told a briefing.
Russia is closely monitoring the situation with Tomahawk missiles, calling on the United States to exercise restraint and hoping that Moscow's signals will be heard in Washington, Zakharova added.
