(ANSA) - ROME, MARCH 23 - "The Western countries led by the United States have decided to bring humanity to the brink of a nuclear Armageddon": the Russian ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said in Washington, according to Tass , responding to statements by senior US officials that depleted uranium munitions are weapons that have been in use for decades and present no high risk.
"Commenting on this kind of nonsense is really difficult. The US authorities have reached a new low with their irresponsible statements," Antonov said.
