MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The statement of Russian President Vladimir Putin on the consequences of Western weapons strikes deep into Russia is extremely clear and unambiguous, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Friday.
"The statement that Putin made yesterday is very important. It is extremely clear, unambiguous and does not allow for any misinterpretations. And we have no doubt that this statement has reached its addressees," Peskov said, answering a question about whether the Kremlin sees the reaction of Western countries to Putin's words about the consequences of long-range weapons strikes on Russia.
On Thursday, Putin said that NATO countries are not just discussing the possible use of Western long-range weapons by Kiev, but are also deciding whether to get directly involved in the Ukrainian conflict. The direct involvement of the West in the Ukrainian conflict changes its nature, and Russia will be forced to make decisions based on the threats thus created for it, Putin concluded.

Kremlin on Erdogan's Words on Crimea: This Issue of Bilateral Disagreements

The issue of Crimea's belonging is a topic that falls into the category of disagreements between Russia and Turkey, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Friday.
"In general, this topic belongs to the category of disagreements that exist between us and our Turkish friends. We really have completely different opinions here," Peskov told reporters, commenting on Erdogan's statement.
Moscow continues to explain to Ankara Russia's position on Crimea, the spokesman said.
"At the same time, we do not abandon our purposeful attempts to further explain our point of view and our position to Turkish friends and colleagues. We hope that over time this will allow Ankara to better understand us, better understand and agree with our arguments," Peskov said.
Russia continues to develop partnership relations with Turkey in all other spheres, the official said.
Earlier this week, media reported that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, in his video message to the participants of the summit of the so-called Crimean platform in Kiev, stated the need to return Crimea to Ukraine, as this is "a requirement of international law."
The US is putting blatant pressure on Ankara, not hesitating to threaten the consequences for Turkey's economy, Peskov said.
"Indeed, the US is exerting undisguised pressure on Turkey, not hesitating to threaten the consequences for the Turkish economy," Peskov told reporters.

Restricting Titanium Exports Related to Trade Restrictions Against Russia

The proposal to think about restrictions on nickel and titanium exports is related to the practice of illegal trade restrictions against, Peskov said.
"No, these are unrelated things. This is generally due to the practice of illegal trade restrictions, attempts to constantly resort to new restrictions in trade with respect to our country," Peskov told reporters, answering the question whether we are talking about supplies only to friendly countries or whether this still needs to be worked out, and whether this proposal is a response to Western arms supplies to Kiev.
