MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Any aggression directed against Russia will be met with a decisive response using all available forces and means—and the consequences for the initiators will be devastating, the Russian Foreign Ministry said Friday. «We reiterate that such reckless schemes and their implementation will have far-reaching consequences. We warn that the response to aggression against our country will be decisive and devastating for the instigators. We reserve the right to respond to threats against us using all available forces and means,» the ministry’s Department of Information and Press told Russian newspaper, commenting on NATO’s most recent pledges of military assistance to Ukraine. Russia has repeatedly warned that arms supplies to Ukraine hinder peace efforts and make NATO countries a party to the conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that any shipments containing weapons for Ukraine would become legitimate targets for Russia.
