Russia's Lavrov says Britain risks being seen as party to Ukraine war
Lavrov said Moscow could treat British help in attacks on Russian territory as war participation after reports of British-made drones in deep strikes.
- Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned that Moscow could regard British involvement in strikes on Russian territory as direct participation in the war, with 'all ensuing consequences,' according to TASS.
- Ukrainian forces used British-made drones in deep-strike operations over the past six months, according to a report by The Sunday Times, including the jet-powered Nyan drone manufactured by Callen-Lenz, a subsidiary of BAE Systems.
- Accusing Britain of being 'an accomplice and co-perpetrator of the bloody crimes and terrorist attacks committed by Ukrainian neo-Nazis,' the Russian Embassy in London labeled the increased military cooperation as an 'escalation.'
- British Prime Minister Andy Burnham reinforced the UK's position Tuesday, stating the nation would support Ukraine '100%' and not be intimidated by Moscow's warnings, adding Britain remains alongside Ukraine 'in its hour of need.'
- Lavrov invoked Russian President Vladimir Putin's standing warning that Moscow reserves the right to respond wherever it believes Russian interests are threatened, establishing a pre-existing doctrine of potential retaliation against nations involved in the conflict.
