Zakharova: The West is afraid of new weapons tests in Russia after Burevestnik
The spokeswoman of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova, said today that Western countries are concerned about what other new weapons tests Russia might conduct after the demonstration of the Burevestnik missile.
"Now we hear feedback from Western countries about Burevestnik. They are not silent. They have a slight feeling of joy, bordering on elation. They are very worried about what we will show them next, so let's prolong the pleasure," Zakharova said at the session of the international science-tourism forum "Discover ATOM", reports TASS.
According to her, the West, which once claimed to be fighting terrorism, has now itself, as she stated, become a sponsor of the terrorist regime in Kyiv.
"One of the most striking manifestations of terrorism is the use of force and weapons to attack civilians... Look at what is happening now: Western money has created a multi-layered international structure called the Kiev regime," she said.
Zakharova pointed out that the West itself once declared a fight against international terrorism and accused other countries of supporting terrorists.

Zakharova: Deliveries of weapons to Ukraine clearly do not contribute to the resolution of the conflict
Deliveries of weapons to Ukraine clearly do not contribute to the resolution of the conflict or the fulfillment of the pre-election promises of the current American leadership, said the spokeswoman of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Maria Zakharova today.
"It is obvious that it has been proven by the current situation and previous years, that militarization and the delivery of weapons, especially to a terrorist regime, will not bring any solution to the situation. And even less, that it will fulfill the pre-election promises of the current (US) administration," Zakharova told reporters, referring to the Pentagon's alleged approval for the delivery of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, reports RIA Novosti.
American television CNN, citing sources in the United States and Europe, reported yesterday that the Pentagon gave the White House permission to allow the delivery of Tomahawk long-range cruise missiles to Ukraine, because the Ministry of Defense determined that it would not harm the American stockpile of weapons. According to CNN, the final political decision on the missile transfer now rests with US President Donald Trump. Zakharova also said that Western countries do not doubt that the Russian"Burevestnik" missile is real, and that they are very worried about what other weapons Russia could display.
"They believed. Now we hear the feedback. They are not silent. They are very afraid of what we will show them next, so let's extend their pleasure," said Zakharova.
She criticized the West for the idea of a transitional loan for Ukraine, and accused Western countries, which once claimed to be fighting terrorism, of now becoming, in her words, sponsors of the terrorist regime in Kiev. Euronews previously announced that, if the European Union does not make a decision on using frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine by the end of this year, it could, as a temporary solution, approve a six-month loan to Kiev and continue discussions on the property issue.
"One of the most impressive manifestations of terrorism is the use of force and weapons to attack civilians... Look at what is happening now: Western money has created a multi-layered international structure called the Kiev regime," Zakharova said.
