Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko gave fundamental assessments of military-technical support for Ukraine from France and other Western countries," the statement says.

"The Russian side pointed to the threats arising from the increase in the supply of weapons and equipment to the Kiev regime, the build-up of training programs for the training of the Ukrainian military," the ministry added.
