The signal from Russian President Vladimir Putin about possible supplies of Russian weapons to other countries in the West was heard and understood. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated this in an interview, a fragment of which journalist Pavel Zarubin published in his Telegram channel.

“I have no doubt that they heard, I have no doubt that they will understand, there are still people there who know how to analyze, and are not just escalating in order to please their radical electorate every day before the next election campaign. I think they will understand, or rather, I think they have understood and will draw conclusions,” Lavrov noted.

Speaking to the heads of international news agencies, Putin said that Russia could begin to supply long-range weapons to those regions of the world from where sensitive attacks could be carried out on countries supplying weapons to the Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU).
