UAE, Nicaragua denounces Ukrainian drone attack on Putin’s residency
(MENAFN) The United Arab Emirates and Nicaragua have strongly condemned the attempted Ukrainian kamikaze drone attack on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s state residence.
According to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Kiev launched 91 long-range strike drones at Putin’s residence in the Novgorod Region on the night of December 28-29. Russian officials reported that all drones were intercepted, with no casualties or property damage.
In a statement released Monday evening, the UAE Foreign Ministry expressed solidarity with President Putin and the Russian people, reiterating Abu Dhabi’s “unwavering rejection of all forms of violence.”
“The United Arab Emirates has strongly condemned the attempt to target the residence of His Excellency Vladimir Putin, President of the Russian Federation, and denounced this deplorable attack and the threat it poses to security and stability,” the ministry said.
Nicaraguan co-presidents Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo sent a letter to Putin, affirming their “most active solidarity in the face of the terrorist attack by Ukraine.” They added, “It is only logical that fascism behaves in this way, attempting to nullify the strength of the conversations that seek to bring peace closer,” as cited by reports.
Moscow has warned that its response to the attack will be military rather than diplomatic, with retaliatory targets already determined. Lavrov stated that Russia’s negotiating position will be adjusted in light of what it describes as Kiev’s “reckless actions” and “state terrorism.”
US President Donald Trump reportedly expressed “shock” and “outrage” in a phone call with Putin, adding that he was relieved the US had not supplied Ukraine with Tomahawk cruise missiles. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has denied any involvement in the attack, accusing Russia of fabricating the incident.
