After the US President supported Ukraine's attack on Russia's "Kursk" region, the prime ministers of a number of European countries also supported this attack.
Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: The Ukrainian army launched unexpected attacks on Russia's "Kursk" last week; An attack that Western media believe has put the Ukrainian army, which is already struggling with a shortage of troops and ammunition, into greater danger because, according to military analysts and Russian officials, the country's armed forces may take retaliatory measures at any moment.
"Ukraine has the right to defend itself, and it is clear that they can carry out an operation in Kursk," Finnish Prime Minister Petri Orpo said during a joint press conference with his Estonian counterpart Kristen Michal, Rasha Today reported.
In turn, the Prime Minister of Estonia said during this press conference in Helsinki: "We fully support Ukraine in various operations and I personally wish them success."
Earlier, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said: "Ukraine has the right to start a war in such a way as to paralyze Russia's aggression in an effective way."
Also, US President Joe Biden and EU foreign policy chief Josep Burrell have been other figures who have supported Ukraine's attack on Kursk.
The American Bloomberg media revealed in a report on Wednesday that Ukraine has taken such an action after receiving "approval" from the United States and the European Union.
Referring to the possibility of retaliatory measures by Russia, this American news media reported: "Revenge from Moscow may be coming. "The lack of missile barrages in more than a month probably indicates that Russia is preparing for a new and large attack by gathering weapons."
"Maria Zakharova," the spokeswoman of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said on Sunday in response to the Ukrainian attacks: "Ukraine's missile and drone attacks on Russian regions in recent days were carried out with the aim of destroying civilian infrastructure and were openly terrorist in nature. "The tough response of the Russian armed forces will not take long."
