WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The new package of US military assistance to Ukraine immediately after recent drone attacks on Moscow and the Moscow Region shows Washington's indifference to the crimes of Ukrainian nationalists, Russian Ambassador to the US Anatoly Antonov said.
"The [US] authorities are again proudly talking about providing financial assistance and another batch of materiel to their crazed Kiev puppets," Antonov said.

"And this is right after a series of terrorist attacks by US proteges in Moscow and the Moscow Region. Instead of calling the Zelensky regime to account, Washington is demonstratively showing indifference to the crimes of Banderites."

The Pentagon said in a release on Wednesday the new security assistance package the United States has announced for Ukraine is valued at $300 million.
"The new US 'security package', totaling $300 million, effectively fuels the rotten regime in Kiev," the Russian ambassador said, later noting that Washington's statements that it does not support Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory are not worth a penny.
"Public statements by the White House that they allegedly do not support the attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the very heart of our Motherland are not worth a penny," Antonov said.
White House Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby told reporters on Wednesday that the US administration opposes Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory to "avoid World War Three."

US to Send $300 Million in Munitions to Ukraine With New Aid Package
On Tuesday, eight drones were intercepted in and near Moscow in what the Russian Defense Ministry said was an attack carried out by Ukraine. Five drones were shot down and three diverted off course, failing to cause any significant damage or casualties.
The Kremlin said this was likely Kiev's retaliation for earlier Russian strikes against a military decision-making center in Kiev. Earlier in May, two drones unsuccessfully tried to attack one of the Kremlin's buildings.
