Russian Defense Minister Warns of Unpredictable Consequences

During a meeting of the defense ministers of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization member states in Bishkek, Andrey Belousov noted that such actions exacerbate the geopolitical situation across Europe. According to the Russian Defense Minister, Moscow is witnessing a decline in U.S. activity regarding support for Kyiv, while assistance from Europe is on the rise.

Belousov emphasized that the European Union is increasingly becoming embroiled in the conflict by providing funding and weapon supplies. The minister assured that Russia is monitoring all channels of arms supply from the West and is deliberately publicizing them. As an example, he pointed to a list published in the media of European companies that produce and send combat drones and their components to Ukraine.
