according to cctv news on september 13, local time on september 12,russian president vladimir putin said:direct involvement of nato, the united states and european countries in the russian-ukrainian conflict will greatly change the nature of the conflict, which will mean that they will go to war with russia. russia will make appropriate decisions based on the threats it faces.。

in response to recent speculation by senior british and american officials that ukraine will be able to use western long-range weapons to strike at the heart of russia, russian president vladimir putin said in an interview with russian media that someone was trying to change the concept because it is not a question of allowing or prohibiting the kiev regime from launching attacks on russian territory. the kiev regime has already launched attacks with the help of drones and other means. but when it comes to the kiev regime using western-made long-range high-precision weapons, it is another matter.

putin said that first, any russian and western experts can confirm that the ukrainian army is not capable of using modern long-range precision weapons systems made in the west to carry out strikes. the ukrainian army can only do this if it uses satellite intelligence, but ukraine does not have satellite intelligence. only eu or us satellites or, generally speaking, nato satellites provide relevant intelligence. secondly,a very critical point is that only nato soldiers can operate these missile systems to carry out missions.. ukrainian soldiers are not capable of doing this.

putin stressed thatthis is not a question of whether to allow the ukrainian regime to use long-range weapons to strike russia, but a question of whether nato countries decide to directly participate in the military conflict. if the west makes this decision, it will mean that nato countries, the united states, and european countries will directly participate in the russian-ukrainian conflict.their direct involvement significantly changes the nature and character of the conflict. this would mean that the above-mentioned countries are at war with russia. if this is the case, russia will make appropriate decisions based on the threat it faces, taking into account the changed nature of this conflict.

the us political news network pointed out that if ukraine can use long-range weapons to attack targets deep inside russia, it will mean a serious escalation of the situation.

on the 12th, russian foreign minister lavrov said that russia has no doubt that the west has long decided to lift restrictions on ukraine's use of long-range weapons to attack russian territory, and is now trying to beautify this decision in public.

russian presidential press secretary peskov made the same judgment.

dmitry peskov, press secretary of the president of the russian federation:of course, it is quite possible that all these decisions have already been made, and this assumption is likely to be true. at present, the media is merely conducting a propaganda campaign to formalize the decisions that have already been made. meanwhile, the united states and european countries continue to try to distance themselves from participation, which we do not think is feasible.
