The Kremlin said Friday it was certain that the United States “understood” Vladimir Putin's message in his speech the day before, claiming responsibility for the firing against Ukraine of a new missile designed to carry a nuclear warhead and threatening the 'West.
“Yesterday's speech was very, very exhaustive, clear, logical,” insisted the spokesperson for the Russian presidency, Dmitri Peskov, on Friday. “We therefore have no doubt that the current administration in Washington has had the opportunity to familiarize itself with this statement and understand it,” he noted.

In his speech, Vladimir Putin estimated that the conflict in Ukraine had now taken on a “global character”, indicating that Moscow reserved the right to strike Western countries which allow Ukraine to use their weapons on Russian soil.
“The main message is that the reckless decisions and actions of Western countries, which produce missiles, supply them to Ukraine and then participate in strikes on Russian territory, cannot go without reaction from Russia” , said Dmitri Peskov on Friday.
