Russia has accused the United States of being behind a recent drone attack on the Kremlin, a claim that the U.S. government has swiftly denied. The drone attack occurred on April 21, 2023, when two unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were detected flying near the Kremlin. According to the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB), the drones were carrying explosives and were intended to attack the presidential residence.
In a statement released on May 4, 2023, the FSB claimed that the drones were “launched from a U.S. military base located in Romania.” The statement also accused the U.S. of “provocative actions” and “aggressive behavior” towards Russia.
The U.S. government has denied any involvement in the drone attack, calling Russia’s accusation “baseless and absurd.” In a press conference on May 4, White House Press Secretary John Smith stated that the U.S. has “no knowledge or involvement in this incident.”
The incident comes amid heightened tensions between the U.S. and Russia, with both countries accusing each other of aggression and interference in each other’s domestic affairs. The U.S. has recently imposed new economic sanctions on Russia, citing its alleged involvement in cyberattacks and election interference.
Russia has also accused the U.S. of supporting anti-government protests in Moscow and other cities, which the Kremlin has described as a “color revolution” aimed at overthrowing the government. The U.S. has denied these accusations and has called on Russia to respect the rights of its citizens to peaceful protest.
The drone attack on the Kremlin has raised concerns about the use of unmanned aerial vehicles for terrorist and military purposes. The incident also highlights the growing tensions between the U.S. and Russia, which have been in conflict over issues ranging from Ukraine to Syria to arms control. It remains to be seen how the two countries will respond to the latest accusation of aggression.
