[Russia Says Deployment of Troops by "Volunteer Union" Countries in Ukraine is Unacceptable] Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated at a press conference in Moscow on the 15th that, for Russia, the deployment of military forces by any "volunteer union" country in Ukraine is unacceptable. Zakharova stated that once these military forces are deployed, they will exacerbate the security threats facing Russia, and Russia will consider these military forces as legitimate targets for attack. Zakharova also stated that the continued supply of weapons to Ukraine by Western countries is one of the obstacles to resolving the Ukrainian conflict. To end the conflict, the West must stop supplying weapons to Ukraine. (Xinhua)
