Tuesday, May 30, an unprecedented drone attack targeted the city of Moscow (Russia). Buildings were hit, but no casualties. “After this drone attack in Moscow, the United States reacted in a measured way, even a little embarrassed at the corners. On Tuesday, a spokesman for the National Security Council, which reports to the White House, said the US generally does not support any attack (as with the headline) inside the territory of Russia, but that at the same time, Ukraine and the city of Kiev had been victims of their 17th air attack since the beginning of this month, and that therefore, between the lines, the Ukraine had the right to defend itself”explains journalist Loïc de la Mornais, correspondent in Washington (United States).
“A very thin ridge line” for the Americans
“For the United States, the ridge line is very thin: supporting Ukraine militarily, yes, but provoking an uncontrolled escalation with Russia, no. analyze what happened to that drone attack. Ukraine and President Volodymyr Zelensky deny that they are behind it”continues Loïc de la Mornais. The journalist indicates that this attack on Moscow could be “the work of autonomous rebels, for example those pro-Ukrainian Russians who attacked the Russian region of Belgorod a few days ago”.
