Ukraine Strikes On Russia With US Missiles Could Lead To World War, Russian Lawmakers Say

Paris, November 18, 2024 (Saudi Arabia Breaking News) – Washington’s decision to let Kyiv strike deep into Russia with long-range U.S. missiles escalates the conflict in Ukraine and could lead to World War Three, senior Russian lawmakers said on Sunday.

 

Two U.S. officials and a source familiar with the decision revealed the significant reversal of Washington’s policy in the Ukraine-Russia conflict earlier on Sunday.

 

“The West has decided on such a level of escalation that it could end with the Ukrainian statehood in complete ruins by morning”, Andrei Klishas, a senior member of the Federation Council, Russia’s upper chamber of parliament, said on the Telegram messaging app.

 

Vladimir Dzhabarov, first deputy head of the Russian upper house’s international affairs committee, said that Moscow’s response will be immediate.

 

“This is a very big step towards the start of World War Three”, the TASS state news agency quoted Dzhabarov as saying.

 

President Vladimir Putin said in September that the West would be fighting Russia directly if it allowed Ukraine to strike Russian territory with Western-made long range missiles, a move he said would alter the nature and scope of the conflict.

 

Russia would be forced to take what Putin called “appropriate decisions” based on the new threats.
