"In fact, President of Russia Vladimir Putin recently commented on this situation in St Petersburg. If acted on, the initiatives to provide Ukraine with US, French and British long-range missiles and to greenlight striking any target inside Russia will mean that NATO countries are at war with Russia," Lavrov said.
