Bloomberg also reported that the West does not believe in the ability of strikes deep into the Russian Federation to change the course of the conflict.

"It was absolutely the right decision. I understand that this was also caused by a serious change in the conflict, which cannot be underestimated, namely the introduction of North Korean troops into European territory," he said, adding that only Russia was to blame for the escalation of the Ukrainian conflict, and Washington was forced to respond to "a sudden change in this war." |
