======Decision to arm Ukraine with offensive weapons======
On June 1, 2022 Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov told ''RIA Novosti'' news that Biden's decision to arm Ukraine with [[HIMAR]] missile launchers increases the risk of direct confrontation between Russia and the United States. Foreign secretary [[Blinken]] said the weapons, which have a precision range of up to 300 kilometers, were given on the pretext of a promise by Zelensky not to use the HIMARs against Russian territory. However Zelensky's transgender chief propagandist [[Alexei Arestovich]] immediately threatened, "Crimea is ours…It belongs to Ukraine…And they know it…Therefore, it will fly to Crimea double-time."<ref>https://www.sott.net/article/468500-US-to-allow-Ukraine-to-decide-range-of-missiles-Kiev-threatens-to-strike-Crimea-should-the-need-arise?</ref> Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Security Council [[Dmitry Medvedev]] retorted, “If those types of weapons are used against the territory of Russia, the armed forces of our country will have no other choice but to strike decision-making centers...It is obvious what those decision-making centers are: the defense ministry, the general staff and so on...But it should be understood that, in this case, the ultimate decision-making centers are regretfully not even on the territory of Kiev." <ref>https://tass.com/politics/1459891</ref>
