Security Council meets – Lavrov threatens retaliation for drone attack

Date:

The suspected Ukrainian drone attack on the Kremlin on Wednesday continues to make waves in Russia. After a “reaction” was announced shortly after the incident, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov followed suit – threatening retaliation.

“It was clearly a hostile act and it is clear that the terrorists in Kiev could not have committed it without the knowledge of their masters,” Lavrov said at a news conference in India.

justification for war
“We will not respond by talking about ‘casus belli’ or not, but with concrete actions.” “Casus belli” is a Latin term for an action that justifies war. Even 15 months after the invasion of Ukraine, Russia still speaks not of a war, but of a special military operation. The president’s office in Moscow said Russia’s Security Council is likely to deal with the incident on Friday.

Russia has accused Ukraine of attempting to assassinate President Vladimir Putin with a drone strike on the Kremlin. Ukraine rejected this. The US had lied to the Russian accusations behind the attack.
