NEW YORK, the UN. Aug 7 (Interfax) - An attack by Ukrainian troops on Russia's Kursk region could result in an escalation of the Ukraine crisis, UN secretary general's spokesperson Farhan Haq said on Wednesday.
"All of these incidents raise the risk that there will be an alarming escalation of the crisis, and we want to see the situation de-escalated as much as possible," he said at a press briefing.
