A Russian attack on Ukraine using an intercontinental ballistic missile would be "extremely serious" if confirmed, a spokesman for France's foreign ministry said Thursday.

"It's clear that if this launch is confirmed, it would be an extremely serious event and it would above all be a continuation of Russia's escalatory attitude," spokesman Christophe Lemoine said, adding that France has "not yet had confirmation" that such an attack took place.
