WorldResponding to Kyiv’s escalation is now the only way to pursue Russia’s interests, Peskov says
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said responding to Kyiv’s escalation is currently Russia’s only way to pursue its interests because there is no opportunity to discuss issues and reach agreements. He said Russia prefers peaceful means but will “fight with full force” until that is possible, and called warnings over a possible Kaliningrad blockade a warning rather than a threat.
