“They (partners) have already begun serious consultations with other EU and NATO member states. The reaction will be very harsh – the head of the Kremlin has already been warned about this directly – during the visit of a serious US official to Russia, “Reznikov added.

The Minister noted that economic and political sanctions could be a response to possible actions of the Russian Federation , as well as an increase in assistance to Ukraine with equipment and weapons.

He stressed that Ukraine refuses to fulfill the Minsk agreements and the agreements of the “Normandy Four” and continues to use prohibited weapons in the region.
