Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky denied the use of Western weapons in Russia. The broadcast of the press conference was published on the YouTube channel of the office of the head of state.

“We do not use [Western] weapons on the territory of Russia, no one contacted me [about this],” he said.

Earlier, Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Cros instructed the special services to study the use of Western weapons by Kiev in the shelling of the Belgorod region. He stressed that Kyiv needs to follow the rule that provides for the use of Belgian weapons only on the territory of Ukraine and exclusively for defense.

The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, in turn, denied the use of Belgian weapons.
