The supply of Western weapons to Ukraine does not contribute to the resolution of the ongoing conflict but only prolongs the suffering of the Ukrainian people, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday after the U.S. announced new military aid to Ukraine.

Commenting on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's visit to Washington on Wednesday, Peskov said both Washington and Kyiv were turning a deaf ear to Russia's concerns.

"We can say with regret that so far neither President (Joe) Biden nor President Zelenskyy have said even a few words that could be perceived as potential readiness to listen to Russia's concerns," Peskov told reporters, adding that Washington was fighting an "indirect war" against Russia.
