OREANDA-NEWS NATO member states are currently directly at war with Russia. This statement was made by Deputy Chairman of the country's Security Council Dmitry Medvedev, whose words are quoted by RIA Novosti.

Earlier, US President Joe Biden for the first time authorized the use of long-range ATACMS missiles by the Armed Forces of Ukraine for strikes on Russian territory. The decision was made against the background of the fact that Moscow allegedly involved troops from North Korea in the fighting in the Kursk region.

After that, the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) struck with American and British long-range missiles. Then Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that on November 21, an Oreshnik medium-range ballistic missile without nuclear equipment struck one of the largest military facilities in Ukraine.
