The administration of the United States is not seeking any form of escalation of the conflict in Ukraine. Such a statement was made by the White House.
Commenting on NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg’s proposal to allow Ukraine to launch strikes with Western weapons deep into Russia, White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said that Washington does not want to exacerbate the current situation.
“We don’t want, frankly, this situation to escalate in any form,” TASS quoted her as saying.
Earlier, White House Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby said that the US does not support Kiev’s desire to hit Russia with Western weapons.
