The Kremlin commented on the information in the American media about the permission of the Ukrainian Armed Forces to launch long-range missile strikes on Russian territory, Paralel.Az's Moscow correspondent reports.

Russian President Vladimir Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the Kremlin is aware of the information.

According to him, the Kremlin has so far only seen publications in the Western media about the USA's permission to launch long-range missile strikes deep into Russia.

Russia assumes that the decision to attack the depths of the Russian Federation with ATACMS missiles means a qualitatively new phase of tension.

"If such a decision was really made and delivered to the Kiev regime, of course, this is a qualitatively new stage of tension and a qualitatively new situation in terms of the participation of the United States in this conflict," the Kremlin spokesman emphasized.
