The Russian embassy in Washington said it would not 'back away' in face of American sanctions.
Tass said the embassy was irked by a U.S. State Department tweet on Monday, which described as a"fact" the statement that Russia had"invaded Ukraine in 2014 and occupied Crimea" and"massed more than 100,000 troops at the border."
"It is the United States that supplies the Ukrainian authorities with modern offensive weapons," the embassy said, claiming the U.S. aimed to"solve the problem of Donbass by force."
