Baltic nations to ship Washington-endorsed arms to Ukraine
The Baltic nations of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania will send U.S.-made anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles to Ukraine in a move that Washington says it is fully endorsing amid Kyiv escalating tensions with Russia
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a tweet posted on Saturday that Washington saluted the three NATO nations and former Soviet republics "for their longstanding support to Ukraine".
"I expedited and authorized and we fully endorse transfers of defensive equipment, NATO Allies Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania are providing to Ukraine to strengthen its ability to defend itself against Russias unprovoked and irresponsible aggression," Blinken said in another tweet.
Dmitry Peskov, spokesperson for Russian President Vladimir Putin, earlier this week described western arms supplies to Ukraine as extremely dangerous and said they "do nothing to reduce tensions."
Moscow has massed tens of thousands of troops at the border with Ukraine, leading to fears of an invasion. The West has rejected Moscows main demands - promises from NATO that Ukraine will never be added as a member, that no alliance weapons will be deployed near Russian borders, and that it will pull back its forces from Central and Eastern Europe.
A meeting Friday between Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov ended with no breakthrough.
In a joint statement published late Friday, the defense ministers of the three Baltic states said they "stand united in our commitment to Ukraines sovereignty and territorial integrity in face of continued Russian aggression."
