Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Kasyanov on Thursday expressed his regret over the outbreak of the US-led war against Iraq.
"The Russian administration expresses regret that the Iraq crisis is being dealt with military forces and without a resolution from the UN Security Council," said the prime minister when opening a government session.
Russia has done everything it could to ensure that the crisis be resolved within the international security system, he added.
Kasyanov said that Russian President Vladimir Putin would soon make a statement on the Iraq issue.
