MOSCOW, September 30 – Novosti. The United States does not recognize the annexation of new regions to Russia, and this is a shame, since they could find a good place for the American consulate there, said Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev.
“Biden announced his non-recognition of the fact that new territories were annexed to Russia. It’s even strange that he remembered us. However, it’s a shame. We could find a good place to open an American consulate in the new regions of the Russian Federation,” Medvedev wrote in his Telegram channel.
Earlier on Friday, US President Joe Biden said that Washington would continue to recognize Ukraine within its former borders and help reclaim territories. Biden also noted that Washington will continue to support Kiev , recalling the allocation of the next tranche of military assistance for $1.1 billion. Biden expressed his readiness to sign a bill under consideration by Congress, under which another $12 billion will be allocated to support Ukraine.
