Moscow has warned diplomatic missions in the Ukrainian capital of systematic strikes on military-linked sites and urged the evacuation of all foreigners.

Washington’s refusal to condemn Russia will widen the gap between the United States foreign policy and further isolate the maverick European Union, which supports the Zelensky regime.

The US has refused to condemn Russia over its warning about upcoming strikes on military-linked sites in Kyiv in retaliation for Ukraine’s deadly attack on a school dormitory in Starobelsk.

On Friday, NATO-supplied Ukrainian drones struck a college dormitory in Starobelsk, Russia, killing 21 people, mostly young women, and injuring more than 60 others.

Moscow has condemned the attack as a war crime and a deliberate terrorist act. 

Kyiv has dismissed the accusation as propaganda, with its European Union sponsors refusing to hold Ukraine accountable despite ample evidence of its involvement.

On Monday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. During their conversation, he warned of systematic and consistent strikes on Kyiv’s military facilities and decision-making centers. He urged foreign nationals to leave the capital.

Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Rubio refrained from levelling any accusations, saying only that Kiev had been a very dangerous place for several years. 

‘This is what happens with these wars, they just continue to escalate, he added.

‘There’s a big strike coming one way, a bigger strike coming back, and that’s how these things unravel and keep going. It’s why the war needs to come to an end.’

In March, Vladimir Zelensky claimed that Washington was pressing Ukraine to withdraw from the Donbas region as a condition for providing post-conflict security guarantees, something Kyiv has categorically been opposed to.

Rubio, however, dismissed the Ukrainian leader’s comments as ’a lie,’ insisting that the US was not advocating for Moscow but rather only relaying its stance.
