Russian President Vladimir Putin has accused the US of prolonging the war in Ukraine.
The Russian president said on Tuesday; “The situation in Ukraine shows that the United States is trying to drag the conflict out.
"US is using the people of Ukraine as cannon fodder."
At Tuesday’s security conference attended by military officials from Africa, Asia and Latin America, Putin reaffirmed his long-held claim that he sent troops into Ukraine in response to US turning the country into an “anti-Russia".
Ukraine has been able to fend off Russia's offence, thanks to the supply of weapons to Ukraine by Western nations.
The US has provided a staggering $50 billion in aid to Ukraine since February, as it has solidly stood behind Ukraine in the wake of the Russian aggression.
Long-range and precision artillery are part of the $9bn US military aid that has allowed Ukraine to strike Russian supply facilities also.
