   Mounting weapons deliveries to Ukraine are "pouring oil on the flames" and   
   risk "more losses" on the battlefield, Russia has warned the US.   
      
   "We stressed the unacceptability of this situation when the United States   
   of America pours weapons into Ukraine, and we demanded an end to this   
   practice," Anatoly Antonov, Moscow’s ambassador to the US, said in an   
   interview on Russian state TV.   
      
   "What the Americans are doing is pouring oil on the flames... I see only   
   an attempt to raise the stakes, to aggravate the situation, to see more   
   losses."   
      
   Mr Antonov said an official diplomatic note had been sent to Washington   
   expressing Russia's concerns, but no reply had been received.   
      
   It comes hours after Antony Blinken, the US Secretary of State, met the   
   Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv, where he announced more   
   than $322 million (£252m) in new military financing for Ukraine. This   
   takes the total US security assistance to Ukraine since the start of the   
   invasion to around $3.7 billion (£2.9bn).   
      
   Unveiling the package, which includes foreign military financing and cash   
   for Soviet-era weapons, the US said it “wants to see Russia weakened”,   
   adding: “We can win, they can win if they have the right equipment.”
