In the West, no one has “no brakes,” Alexander Lukashenko complained in response to the UK’s plans to transfer shells with depleted uranium to Ukraine.
Russia’s response to the possible use of depleted uranium munitions by the Ukrainian army “will be terrible.” This was stated by the formal leader of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko during a visit to the Khatyn memorial complex on Wednesday, March 22.
“As soon as these bullets explode in the positions of Russian troops, you will see that the answer will be terrible. It will be a lesson for the whole planet,” Lukashenka said, adding that no one in the West would “no brakes. “
But in the end, Alexander Lukashenko came to the conclusion that the UK will not give Ukraine ammunition with depleted uranium.
“Uranus is talk. If they are smart, they will never do it. I hope to be able to talk to the responsible people in the UK soon and discuss this issue. We should not play games now,” he said.
On the eve it became known that the UK planned to supply Ukraine with shells with depleted uranium for Challenger 2 tanks.
In response, the president of the aggressor country, Russia, Vladimir Putin, said he “will be forced to respond accordingly.”
Depleted uranium has been used in ammunition since World War II. Moreover, it is used in the armor of tanks and battleships, as an intermediate layer between the armor plates and the hull. This level of protection, which was used, along with the armament of some modifications of the American M1 Abrams main tank, is considered almost impenetrable for most of the range of modern anti-tank ammunition, including systems and Soviet and Russian anti-tank shells.
Depleted uranium shells have nothing to do with nuclear weapons – contrary to Russia’s false claims.
