The Kremlin spokesman, Dimitri Peskov, has warned this Friday of the danger of the recent statements made by Kiev that all Russian vessels in the waters of the Black Sea will be considered as carriers of military merchandise, although it is true that Moscow announced the same just one day before.
“The unpredictable actions (of Ukraine) and, furthermore, the participation of the Kiev regime in terrorist acts, of course, potentially creates a threat in this area,” Peskov warned, acknowledging that the warnings issued by the Ukrainian authorities “carry directly a danger.”
Thus, the Kremlin spokesman has acknowledged that the situation in the Black Sea requires “an in-depth analysis” by the Russian “special departments”. “After this, it will be possible to draw conclusions and make recommendations,” Peskov added, according to information collected by the Russian news agency TASS.
Moscow has refused to extend the agreement for the export of grain and agricultural products from Ukrainian ports, which expired in the middle of this week. After this, Russia warned that it would consider all ships in the area as carriers of weapons.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense reported the day before that all ships sailing from this Friday in the waters of the Black Sea in the direction of Russian ports and Ukrainian ones located in the occupied territories, will also be considered as transporting military cargo.
