Elena Panina (Елена Панина) | US ineptly denies involvement in strikes on Russian airfields | Following the recent Ukrainian UAV strikes on airfields deep in Russian territory, conflicting statements have sprung from Washington. 💬 Secretary of State Anthony Blinken: "The US does not encourage the Ukrainians to launch strikes on Russian territory and does not give them the opportunity to do so." Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin: 💬 "The US is not creating obstacles for Kiev to develop weapons for long-range strikes. ● The overall message is that the US is allegedly not involved in attacks by the AFU, including on Russia's strategic nuclear forces. ● Meanwhile, commercial satellites from the US company Maxar, which cooperates with both the Pentagon and Ukraine, filmed Russia's Engels strategic airbase on 3 and 4 December and the airfield in Diaghilevo in late October. ● Apparently, Western satellites were also used for direct targeting of these facilities by UAVs. At least that is what Ukrainian sources say. ● Simply put, the US is lying. And the verbal excuses of their top officials are only meant to control the level of escalation of the conflict in Ukraine so that it does not spill over into the territory of NATO countries. ● As has been said repeatedly, the key to ending the military confrontation in Ukraine lies not in Kyiv but in Washington. Only by addressing America's pain points will Russia be able to resolve the conflict in its favour. (Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator)
