Moscow lambasted the US House of Representatives on Saturday for its ratification of an assistance package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan.
“The allocation of US military aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan will exacerbate global crises,” foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated via Telegram.
She described aid to Kyiv as “direct support for terrorist activities” and aid to Taiwan as “interference in China’s internal affairs”.
Support for Israel is “a direct path to an unprecedented worsening of the situation in the region,” Zakharova said.
Earlier Saturday, Russia’s presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the decision to provide aid to Ukraine “will further enrich the United States of America and ruin Ukraine even more, by killing even more Ukrainians because of the Kyiv regime,” state news agency TASS reported.
In a rare Saturday session, lawmakers in the United States House of Representatives enacted legislation that helps Ukraine and Israel, strengthens Taiwan, and threatens TikTok with a ban if it does not divest from Beijing.
