Lavrov’s Empty Threats: Russia Already Bombing Kyiv Systematically
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov informed U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio of systematic strikes planned for facilities in Kyiv, which Russia alleges are used by Ukraine’s armed forces. Moscow frames these strikes as retaliation for a Ukrainian attack in Starobilske, a claim Ukraine denies, stating they targeted a Russian military command post. Ukraine’s Foreign Minister urges Western allies to provide proportional support through increased military aid and sanctions, emphasizing that Russia cannot achieve its objectives militarily.
