EU’s Kallas Says Russia’s Claims of Ukrainian Strikes Are a ‘Distraction’

 


European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has rejected Russia’s recent allegations that Ukraine carried out attacks on Russian territory, calling the claims a “distraction” designed to shift attention away from Moscow’s actions in the war.

Kallas urged European partners to remain focused on supporting Ukraine and not allow what she described as misleading narratives to derail ongoing diplomatic and humanitarian efforts.
