Russia announced last week that it has pulled its ambassador to the U.S. and the outgoing diplomat warned the West, again, of the growing risk of a nuclear confrontation between the countries.
Anatoly Antanov served in the post since 2017 and told reporters the relationship between countries was “arguably at the lowest point in their history.”
He said that there would be an “uncontrolled nosedive” if Kyiv get the green light from the U.S. to use long-range missiles to strike targets deep inside Russia, the Daily Mail reported.
He said a global nuclear “catastrophe would affect everyone” and the U.S. “will not be able to sit it out across the ocean.”
