3 May. (EUROPE PRESS) –

The Secretary of State of the United States, Antony Blinken, has questioned this Wednesday the information that accounts for an alleged Ukrainian attack against the headquarters of the Russian Presidency and has affirmed that, “like everything that comes out of the Kremlin”, it is necessary to take it with caution.

The head of US diplomacy has thus avoided “validating” the Russian accusations. “We just don’t know,” he said, during a meeting organized by the newspaper ‘The Washington Post’ and in which he called not to “comment or speculate” without knowing “the facts”.

The Kremlin has denounced a drone attack and has indicated that said action, which it attributes to Ukraine, was aimed at assassinating Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Ukrainian authorities have already distanced themselves from this incident, fearing that Moscow could use it as an excuse for further action.
