Whatever it was didn’t involve us, John Kirby, White House National Security Council spokesman, on MSNBC's 'Morning Joe'.
We had nothing to do with this, so Peskov is just lying there, pure and simple, John Kirby, White House National Security Council spokesman, on MSNBC's 'Morning Joe'.

We are not attacking Putin or Moscow.
We are fighting on our own territory, defending our villages and cities, Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian president, via statement.
We do not have enough weapons even for this.
That is why we do not use them elsewhere.
We have a deficit.
We cannot use everything and everywhere, Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian president, via statement
