Putin says response to attacks with long-range weapons on Russian territory under consideration – Russian politics and diplomacy

MOSCOW, October 27. /TASS/. The Russian Defense Ministry is considering various response options to possible attacks with long-range weapons on Russian territory, President Vladimir Putin said in an interview with VGTRK journalist Pavel Zarubin.

Technically, such attacks should only be carried out directly by the military of NATO countries, and not by Ukraine, the president stressed. “We will have to respond to it respectively. How to respond, when and where, is still too early to say,” he said.

“Of course our military agency is considering this and it will provide various response options,” Putin added.

The Kiev regime is unable to independently carry out highly precise attacks deep inside Russia, he noted.

Earlier, the Russian president emphasized that such attacks would mean the West’s direct involvement in the conflict and a direct confrontation between Moscow and the alliance.
