00:00In Brazil, on the sidelines of the G20 Summit, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warned

00:06that although the United States has not taken an official position on the use of its missiles,

00:12the attack against the province of Pryansk demonstrates its involvement in the Ukrainian

00:16conflict.

00:25As for the decision of the United States to authorize the Kiev regime to use weapons with

00:29a range of up to 300 kilometers, we have read what was published in the New York Times.

00:43There is no confirmation so far neither from the White House, nor from the Pentagon, however

00:48our position is based on what is happening on the ground.

01:01It is necessary to take into account today's attack on the Russian province of Bryansk,

01:06which is a border province.

01:15Because we are going to start from the understanding that this is already happening, because no

01:19modification of these missiles can be used without the assistance of the United States.

01:29The Russian top diplomat pointed out that the use of long-range missiles from Ukraine

01:34against Russian territory implies a new escalation on the part of the West and assured that Moscow's

01:39response will be proportional.

01:45The Russian president said it several times.

01:54If long-range missiles are used from Ukraine to the territory of Russia, it will mean that

02:04US military experts are involved in it, and we will see it as a new round of escalation

02:09of the West against Russia, and we will react in accordance with this fact.
