Washington has completely subordinated G-7 members to its own line regarding the conflict in Ukraine, Antonov said in a statement. published on the Telegram channel of the Russian Embassy. In addition, the United States has sharply tightened its approaches on two important issues: preparations for the transfer of F-16 fighter jets to Kiev and unconditional approval of strikes in Crimea using Western weapons.
