The Kremlin official said that in combination with the weapons flows that the same countries and the North Atlantic Alliance direct to Ukraine, "these actions by no means promote prompt completion of the operation".
"At the same time, [such actions] are unable to prevent the achievement of the special military operation’s goals," Peskov stressed.
In reply to an elaborative question about what special countermeasures might be taken, Peskov replied that Russian military specialists "do everything necessary in this situation".
