US Charge d’Affaires to Russia Stephanie Holmes has been summoned to the Russian Foreign Ministry and a strong protest has been lodged against the participation of US mercenaries in the terrorist action of the AFU in Kursk Region, the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
“Holmes was strongly protested in connection with the provocative actions of American reporters who illegally entered the Kursk region for propaganda coverage of the Kiev regime’s crimes, as well as the emerging evidence of participation of the US PMC on the side of the AFU during their invasion of the territory of the Russian Federation,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The Russian Foreign Ministry stressed that what was happening contradicted the White House’s assertions that Washington was not involved in the attack by the Ukrainian military on Russian territory. In addition, it proves that the United States is a direct participant in the conflict.
The Foreign Ministry warned that the Americans involved in the crimes in Russia would be investigated and brought to justice. In addition, “all foreign ‘specialists’ and mercenaries”, illegally crossing the border of Russia, automatically become a legitimate military target of the Russian Armed Forces, the diplomatic department pointed out.
We will remind, earlier the US private military company Forward Observation Group published in Instagram a photo indicating that fighters from the United States are on the territory of the Kursk region as part of the Ukrainian troops.
