“NATO is an organization which is hostile to us and which proves this hostility every day,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters. “It is trying its best to make its involvement in the conflict around Ukraine as clear as possible,” Peskov added. Moscow has said weapons supplies to Ukraine by NATO countries are dragging out the conflict and raising the possibility of a further escalation.
Kyiv and the West say deliveries of advanced military hardware are crucial in helping Ukraine defend itself against Russia’s offensive.
Meanwhile, NATO military alliance chief Jens Stoltenberg said on Tuesday that Western countries need to boost ammunition supplies to Ukraine as Russia escalates its operation effort before the first anniversary of the February 24 operation.
