Ukraine warning from Lavrov to England

Speaking to Rossiya-1 television channel, Lavrov evaluated British Prime Minister Andy Burnham's statement that they would continue to support Ukraine.

"If England ends up with Ukraine, I feel sorry for England." Lavrov noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin had previously warned that "if someone harms Russian interests and property, they have the right to take action in any region of the World Ocean."

Lavrov said, "Similarly, we have the right to consider the involvement of the British Missile Forces in attacks against Russia as participation in the war with all its consequences." he said.

In the statement made by the Russian Embassy in London, Britain was accused of "making a conscious choice to escalate the Ukraine crisis".

The statement warned that Britain's support for Ukraine would have consequences, and said, "The deeper it gets involved in the conflict and the more it supports Kiev's terrorist mechanism, the higher the price it will pay." The expression was used.

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham stated that support to Kiev would continue despite Russia's warning that "the price it will pay will increase" if Britain becomes more involved in the war in Ukraine.

The British Ministry of Defense also announced that it was determined to provide Ukraine with the equipment it needs to defend itself against Russia.

Britain has been among Kiev's biggest international supporters since Russia launched the war against Ukraine.
