By equipping Ukraine with offensive lethal weapons, the American leadership is pushing Kyiv to unleash a full-scale war.

The head of the DPR, Alexander Zakharchenko, stated this during a meeting with journalists, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The United States, through Canada, has opened a window through which they will officially sell lethal weapons to Ukraine. I believe that by doing so the United States is pushing Ukraine to start a large-scale war. Those weapons, the Javelins, for which the budget has already been signed and the number of launchers and missiles agreed upon, is not a defensive weapon, but an offensive one. To knock out and destroy enemy armored vehicles during either an offensive or defensive battles,” said the head of the DPR.
He also noted that the need to purchase such weapons can hardly indicate Kyiv’s peace-loving plans.
“If they buy these weapons, it means they are going to attack themselves. And with these weapons, the United States is pushing Ukraine towards war. Some vectors of desires converge here: the United States wants war, and Ukraine has nowhere to go, they need war,” noted the head of the republic.
He assured journalists that the DPR is able to give a worthy rebuff to Ukrainian aggression.
“We won, we broke their spirit. Our armed forces are very well equipped both technically and materially. The most important thing is that we have been fighting for four years now, we have well-trained officer cadres,” Zakharchenko summed up.
