Dmitry Medvedev's statement has been seen as an attempt to deter the US-led NATO military alliance and Kyiv's Western allies from getting even more involved in the year-old conflict in Ukraine.

The latest comments by Medvedev, who serves as deputy chairman of Russia’s security council, follow Putin's nuclear warning last week and his Sunday remarks casting Moscow's confrontation with the West as an existential battle for the survival of Russia and the Russian people.

“Of course, the pumping in of weapons can continue …. And prevent any possibility of reviving negotiations,” Medvedev said in remarks published in the daily Izvestia.
