Britain’s Foreign Secretary issued a statement in response to Putin’s criticism of a plan to supply Ukraine with depleted uranium munitions.
Transferring depleted uranium shells to Ukraine would not constitute a nuclear escalation. This is what British Foreign Secretary James Cleverley said, according to Sky News.
“There is no nuclear escalation. The only country in the world that talks about nuclear issues is Russia. There is no threat to Russia, it is only about helping Ukraine to protect it,” he said.
The statement was cleverly released after Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin criticized Britain’s plan to supply Ukraine with depleted uranium munitions.
It will be remembered that British Deputy Defense Minister Anabel Goldie said that Ukraine will receive shells with depleted uranium from the UK.
It was previously reported that the UK will send 14 Challenger 2 tanks to Ukraine. Frontline combat vehicles will arrive in the summer.
