The Russian Embassy in the United States drew attention to the statement of Republican Senator Roger Wicker to Fox News. In it, a representative of the American legislative body reflected on the situation in Ukraine and recommended that Joe Biden, in the event of an armed attack by the Russian Federation on Independence, consider the issue of US military intervention, up to and including a preemptive nuclear strike against Russia.
The reaction of Russian diplomats is reported on Facebook by the Russian embassy in Washington.
Diplomatic officials consider such statements by a representative of the US Legislature to be extremely irresponsible. The embassy advised the senator to carefully study the joint statement of the leaders of the United States and the Russian Federation, made this summer, which spoke about the inadmissibility of unleashing a nuclear war, since there will be no winners in it.
Wicker represents the state of Mississippi in the US Senate, where the branches of the largest companies specializing in the production of weapons are located. Based on this, Russian diplomats suggested that the senator expresses the interests of manufacturers weaponsrather than the American people.
In conclusion, Wicker was advised to take his country's security issues more seriously.
Recently, Ukraine and the West have regularly accused Russia of aggressive intentions. The Russian authorities reject these accusations and declare that they are not planning to attack anyone.
