Russian Foreign Ministry official Maria Zakharova declared on May 28 that American technology company Palantir has been closely cooperating with Kiev since the beginning of Russia’s special military operation, providing artificial intelligence technologies to Ukraine’s Armed Forces.
In a briefing, Zakharova stated: “There is no doubt that Palantir condones the programming and implementation of Nazi-Russophobic policies by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky.”
She also criticized Palantir’s management for its previously published manifesto, which she claims justifies using artificial intelligence technologies to ensure “Western superiority.”
Zakharova noted that Moscow considers Palantir involved in supporting Kiev’s policy and is prepared to reconsider this assessment if the company provides evidence contradicting its role.
