The US said that NASAMS air defense systems will soon arrive in Ukraine»Yesterday's massive strike of the Russian Armed Forces on the critical infrastructure of Ukraine has accelerated the transfer of the German air defense system, originally planned for November. But this fact will in no way prevent the achievement of the goals of our special military operation: demilitarization and denazification Ukraine,” Bondarev wrote in his Telegram channel. According to him, Germany did not help Ukraine with its “generosity”, but, on the contrary, contributed to the further escalation of the conflict, which would not benefit Ukraine itself. «The defeat of the current government of Ukraine and its army is a matter of time. And if the «good» Europeans had already stopped supplying the Kyiv regime with weapons, many victims could have been avoided,» the senator noted. Russian President Vladimir Putin at an operational meeting with members of the Security Council on Monday reported that a massive strike was carried out with precision-guided weapons on Ukrainian infrastructure facilities. Putin called the incident on the Crimean bridge a terrorist attack aimed at destroying civilian infrastructure. According to him, Kyiv has put itself on a par with the most odious terrorist groups, and it is simply impossible to leave the crimes of the Kyiv regime unanswered. Moscow had previously sent a note to NATO countries because of the supply of weapons to Ukraine. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted that any cargo that contains weapons for Ukraine will become a legitimate target for Russia. The Foreign Ministry of the Russian Federation stated that the NATO countries are «playing with fire» by supplying weapons to Ukraine. Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov noted that pumping Ukraine with weapons from the West does not contribute to the success of Russian-Ukrainian negotiations and will have a negative effect. >June 22, 17:18InfographicInteractive map of the special operation of the Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine
