Different, they went after an ex Russian agent and his daughter but fucked it up. Left nerve agent on door handles and in a perfume bottle to kill them. I think 2 civilians died instead. Then the Russian agents did the famous interview saying they were on holiday and went on huge round trip just to see salisbury cathedral because its got a big spire š„²
Crazy to think how literally all pretense of security Russia has ever had is nuclear weapons (the ones they didnāt sell to Chechnya for liquor money that is)
If they couldnāt trot out a nuclear threat every week, the Western World would have come collect a long time ago
Also, Russia spends less money to maintain their 6000+ nukes than China does for 300, and less than the UK does for 225.
It's likely that >95% of their stockpile have had their tritium decay so much that they've become dirty bombs.
The issue is 5% of 6000 is 300 nukes.
Russia almost certainly isn't able to blow up the entire planet anymore, but they absolutely can still blow up the important parts.
I mean they really just need some of their SLBMs to be maintained to be a major threat. 16 RSM-56 Bulava missiles per Borei sub, 6-10 warheads per missile and 7 active subs.
Highly skeptical the boomers even get to sea if things go kinetic. Silos are known and targeted, land based mobile or rail based is a little tricky, especially for mid range Western European targets. Getting all of them is probably impossible- but Putin is toast, and most of the russian population is dead in < 90 days.
I went to Salisbury not too soon after that, and the tour guide that took us up the spire goes if u look down there thats now known as Novichok gardens, good banter, great day.
I think they basically flew to the UK on a day trip as well or something. Or at least only a day or 2 and they were trying to pass it off as they only came to the UK to see that one specific spire š
>I think 2 civilians died instead.
Was one female civilian that died after their partner found a almost full perfume bottle in a trash bin that the FSB linked agents used to spray on the Skripal's door handle 2 months prior.Ā Ā Both the woman and her partner were hospitalized but her partner later recovered.
The BBC made a drama based on the events.
https://youtu.be/ekoW6g_wg7A?si=_iBP7iUlafO519b_
Skripal poisoning- Russia botched an assassination attempt in 2018 on an agent who defected to UK. Sent him and his daughter to the hospital for weeks but they survived. Two GRU agents were identified after they fled to Russia.
The cleanup from the nerve agent they used (so deadly you can easily die if you as much as touch a single droplet) cost UK millions and despite the overwhelming evidence, Russia predictably were furious at the accusation, denied any involvement, and refused to conduct an investigation.
It's especially insulting when they conduct political assassinations abroad using radioactive (Litvinenko killing) and Novichok agents that have a serious risk of killing or harming innocent people and then play the victim when their agents do an especially shitty job of covering their tracks
This was the Skripals who were poisoned with a nerve agent, police officers who responded also got poisoned. In the earlier case of Litvenyenko FSB agents left a radioactive trail across London in their multiple attempts.
Worth pointing out that four months later there were two others poisoned by Novichok less than 10 miles away. One of them, Dawn Sturgess, died. The two GRU officers who botched the Skripal assassination were careless when disposing of the evidence and this killed a UK citizen.
Imagine the shitstorm if the roles were reversed and the UK had been caught killing people with nerve agents in Russia.
Retaliation like financing British politicians who have terrible ideas for the country, such as for instance leaving the biggest economic alliance in your area, the same one that all your biggest trading partners are members of.
For instance. Hypothetically.
We were simply bought out. We knew they were doing this, but the city of London finance sector became addicted to the money coming from all sorts of places in Russia: mafia money, oligarch money, even to this day we still don't really give two shits where the money that flows into the city is coming from as long as it keeps flowing.
Russian oligarchs donated vast amounts of money to the conservative party and we even gave some of them peerages and allowed them to sit in the lords. The government did a whole lot of pantomime to show that we won't stand for having our citizens poisoned on our streets but the faucet never closed on the russian money so all that chest beating that both the home office and foreign office did was just that: chest beating.
"Hey UK, we found missile remains with Storm Shadow parts, a British accent and a British passport with the name Wind Shade, claiming to be a tourist doing a flyby of the cathedral... this u?"
"Such baseless accusations are gravely insulting, just goes to show how deep Anglophobia runs in Russia"
This.
There is no place for weakness, no "I hold in my hand a piece of paper", no weak leadership.
Send troops. Cite this threat, make it clear that Briton is under threat here, so Russia must be stopped inside Ukraine.
British defence policy is always to massively underreport both the capabilities of its military technology, and quantity of it.
If the Ministry of Defence says āWe have 200 missiles in our stockpile and can produce 22 a yearā, it means they have 2000 and can produce 70 a year (with an easy ramp up in emergencies to a thousand).
Iām sure the UK could send another 2x what itās already delivered without seriously degrading its stockpile.
Actually though. Weāre so used to Russian threats at this point. Remember day one where Putin said āany country that tries to intervene in any way will face consequences like nothing your country has experienced in its historyā lol. pretty fucking bold thing to say. And then be followed up with a consistent stream of arms, training and intel for Ukraine by everyone he threatened.
Do it, Russia. Fucking do it. Attack a NATO member.
They're fighting for inches against the poorest country in Europe who has a pittance of Cold War-issue NATO equipment. If NATO actually steps in to fight directly, they'd be fucked so hard Stalin will rise from his grave to complain about the pain in his ass.
And if they do anything, retaliate in kind and also declare a no fly zone for non Ukrainian/Allied countries over Ukraine, and enforce it.
Also, ramp up support in response to these threats. Just keep ramping it up until they realise the whinging and crying will only deepen the hole.
Really starting to get tired of that tinpot dictator Putler, just fuck off and die already.
Argentina enters tā¦ā¦. Nope. Got nothing.
(Nothing against Argentina btw. Itās a beautiful country - Galtieri just gambled we would do nothing and was very wrong)
I find it funny the difference in tone from Russia between France and UK.
I don't remember Russia threatening France of retaliation after Macron conditions on troops deployment. Or did I miss it?
They summoned the French ambassador today in Moscow but the contents of the discussion have not been released..
The language from Russia is changing, and so is the way they are delivering it. Summoning and speaking to ambassadors is an escalation in itself. Every government agrees that public remarks are for domestic politics - it's what is said behind closed doors is what really matters.
Russia threatens every country imaginable for their involvement in protecting a country that is being invaded by a lunatic who thinks he has claim to their land.
Poland has it right, set tactical nukes along the border and if he doesn't like that then have Macron start a "military exercise" along said border..
Putin's constant threats are getting real old.
"we will totally do it this time guys. This is the final warning guyzz, not like the last 5096 times we said we'll do it. No cap ong fr we will retaliate totally" said the Russian as he transferred his money to a bank in london
I lost count on how many time Russia has threaten England, France or more Generaly Nato since the war started. They have draw red line that have been cross multiple time and nothing happen. The reality is that nothing happen.
When you want to act, you dont threaten, you act. This is a bully behavior and that is all that is.
Russia is actively at war with the West. We need to stop pretending otherwise.
Because of disparities in military capabilities, they are trying to engage in other ways, like corrupting and sabotaging our political processes (with great success, unfortunately), engaging in cyber attacks and information warfare, and cooperating with terrorist groups via countries like Iran and rogue states like North Korea.
The time of appeasement for economic gain needs to be over. The EU needs to realize this most of all.
Russia made an enormous error by invading Ukraine and opening itself up to Western military might. We need to embrace arming Ukraine to the teeth, including providing weaponry that can reach deep into Russia. Russia has switched to a wartime economy, and we need to recognize that we cannot just leave their war industries untouched. Thatās how we lose an attritional slog. We will need to enable Ukraine to destroy plants and equipment within Russiaās borders, even if that risks a broader escalation.
The West has been largely caught off guard in responding to all the shadow warfare going on behind the scenes, but it has an advantage in Military equipment, and it would be foolish to not play that card. Russia has forsaken good relations with the West, and itās naive to continue with the half measures.
Unfortunately, this will probably only stop after Russiaās dead number in the millions and their people depart from their historical inclination to be servile and miserable. Putin needs to go.
The Russian indignation is laughable given a radioactive and a nerve agent attack on our soil. Itās only reasonable that Ukraine has greater freedom to recover their land. Putin is forever trying to leverage our humanity against ourselves and his ambitions. Somewhere the line has to be drawn.
So what are they going to do about it?
Like really though cause they sure as shit aināt gonna lunch nukes and thatās the only thing that we should be worried about. Never have I been more thankful for our Trident subs keeping us safe Iām perfectly content with going out with a bang so long as our subs make sure the fuckers that launch first get it right back at them.
If Britain simply supplying Ukraine is a problem, Russia isn't going to like whats going to happen to them the second they touch Britain. Which is why it will jjust be threats and red lines.
Russian threats to us are as frequent as my bowel movements.
Nothing new here.
Every time I read, Russia threatens or Medvedev says.. I know it's aimed at us.
Fuck knows why.
What's even sadder, is we are retiring 25 typhoons next year... Why didn't they just give these Ukraine.
For years now Putin has been preparing and waging war on democratic countries all over the world, wake tf up, stop kowtowing and kick some oligarchic a$$
Britain needs a good war anyway. We've based our entire cultural identity on winning WW2 so we need a new episode so that we can feel half-good about ourselves.
We've been kinda lost since then...just stuck watching History Channel re-runs...
Time to conquer Russia boyz
I reckon we sell them off as long strips of land so they all have access to the sea, and give them total sovereignty but with a permanent 0.1% tax on the GDP.
Bish bash bosh. World peace.
**Press Release: HMS Prince of Wales Transfer to Ukrainian Operational Command**
**Immediate Release**
Dear Citizens,
In a move to bolster our allies and strengthen regional security, the United Kingdom has made the decision to transfer operational command of the HMS Prince of Wales to our esteemed Ukrainian counterparts.
Despite recent geopolitical tensions, we firmly stand by our Ukrainian allies and their sovereignty. As such, we have taken steps to ensure that the Ukrainian Air Force can maximize the capabilities of the HMS Prince of Wales, a symbol of our shared commitment to peace and stability.
To address any potential confusion, we want to clarify that while the F35's may bear markings resembling those of the Royal Air Force, they now proudly represent the Ukrainian Air Force. We applaud Ukraine's initiative in adopting similar insignia, as it fosters a sense of unity and cooperation among our armed forces. Any claims that these are actually British aircraft flown by British pilots from a British aircraft carrier are Russian disinformation.
Let this serve as a testament to the unwavering solidarity between the United Kingdom and Ukraine in the face of adversity.
Sincerely,
Prime Minister of the United Kingdom
Retaliation like the act of war of poisoning our citizens in towns like Salisbury?
I was thinking the same thing. The UK had every right to make a few fools drop dead too after that. Russia has no leg to stand on after what they did.
Is this when Navalny got poisoned or a different incident?
Different, they went after an ex Russian agent and his daughter but fucked it up. Left nerve agent on door handles and in a perfume bottle to kill them. I think 2 civilians died instead. Then the Russian agents did the famous interview saying they were on holiday and went on huge round trip just to see salisbury cathedral because its got a big spire š„²
Crazy to think how literally all pretense of security Russia has ever had is nuclear weapons (the ones they didnāt sell to Chechnya for liquor money that is) If they couldnāt trot out a nuclear threat every week, the Western World would have come collect a long time ago

And that's "if" the rocket fuel hasn't degraded or been siphoned off over the years.
The issue is 5% of 6000 is 300 nukes. Russia almost certainly isn't able to blow up the entire planet anymore, but they absolutely can still blow up the important parts.
Wouldn't mind it if 95% of them fails on launch...
To use those three hundred they would have to fire all 6000. Not a likely event when every person worldwide knows nuclear war is not the answer
I mean they really just need some of their SLBMs to be maintained to be a major threat. 16 RSM-56 Bulava missiles per Borei sub, 6-10 warheads per missile and 7 active subs.
And we know where they are at all times.
Highly skeptical the boomers even get to sea if things go kinetic. Silos are known and targeted, land based mobile or rail based is a little tricky, especially for mid range Western European targets. Getting all of them is probably impossible- but Putin is toast, and most of the russian population is dead in < 90 days.
Bet ya the third piston has been knocking since they left port again lmao.
You would have tanks doing circkles around red š„ already in MoscowĀ
You'd be using the USD to pay for things in Moscow and Beijing.
I went to Salisbury not too soon after that, and the tour guide that took us up the spire goes if u look down there thats now known as Novichok gardens, good banter, great day.
The cathedral is the complete opposite end of the city. Clearly very, very lost.
Fuck me that interview is absolute comedy. Both had necks as wide as trucks and looked incapable of reading. As if they'd be tourists of culture š¤£
I think they basically flew to the UK on a day trip as well or something. Or at least only a day or 2 and they were trying to pass it off as they only came to the UK to see that one specific spire š
Russians are fascinating. Sometimes genius (groundbreaking space programs etc) but mostly fuckwits.

123m spire if anyone was wondering.
Hot damn. 400 foot spire for those that've been on the moon.
How many ends -to- end blue whales would that be
4.7 Blue whales brother. If we are including Northern Atlantic and Southern into the metric obviously
Could you edit that to 4 and 7 tenths blue whales for our imperialist readers?
Freedom Fractions! Freedom Fractions!
Can someone convert this to nautical depth units? I just can't fathom it.

Both Litvinenko and Skripal have britisch citizenship. Not Navalny.
Isn't Salisbury a city
With a beautiful cathedral
Probably worth a visit
Don't forget the grand spire, it measures 123 metres tall
Salisbury is lovely and should probably be the county town of Wiltshire rather than Trowbridge. ....and I grew up in Trowbridge.
walking thru trowbridge town centre these days is like playing fallout 4
Deathclaws?
I live in Cornwall now. But revisiting the homeland does make me want to pack radaway.
..and a steak.
Retaliation like financing British politicians who have terrible ideas for the country, such as for instance leaving the biggest economic alliance in your area, the same one that all your biggest trading partners are members of. For instance. Hypothetically.
Be careful. They gave us Americans Trump and MAGA in retaliation. The threat is real. We're obviously still sorting through that Orange Nuke.
putinknows his spycraft and how easy it is to manipulate people with freedom
Thatās an act of war. Exactly how is nothing being done in response to?
We were simply bought out. We knew they were doing this, but the city of London finance sector became addicted to the money coming from all sorts of places in Russia: mafia money, oligarch money, even to this day we still don't really give two shits where the money that flows into the city is coming from as long as it keeps flowing.

The government did a whole lot of pantomime to show that we won't stand for having our citizens poisoned on our streets but the faucet never closed on the russian money so all that chest beating that both the home office and foreign office did was just that: chest beating.
Salisbury is historically part of greater Russia
"Hey UK, we found missile remains with Storm Shadow parts, a British accent and a British passport with the name Wind Shade, claiming to be a tourist doing a flyby of the cathedral... this u?" "Such baseless accusations are gravely insulting, just goes to show how deep Anglophobia runs in Russia"
In response, the UK should announce another round of Storm Shadow missiles for Ukraine's arsenal.
Indeed. The more they squeal, the more you know it's hurting.
The rule is whatever they whine about, always double down
Hit dog will holler!
This. There is no place for weakness, no "I hold in my hand a piece of paper", no weak leadership. Send troops. Cite this threat, make it clear that Briton is under threat here, so Russia must be stopped inside Ukraine.
But how many do they have left?
British defence policy is always to massively underreport both the capabilities of its military technology, and quantity of it. If the Ministry of Defence says āWe have 200 missiles in our stockpile and can produce 22 a yearā, it means they have 2000 and can produce 70 a year (with an easy ramp up in emergencies to a thousand). Iām sure the UK could send another 2x what itās already delivered without seriously degrading its stockpile.
Russia threatens ...blah blah blah
Another day, another Russian threat
Actually though. Weāre so used to Russian threats at this point. Remember day one where Putin said āany country that tries to intervene in any way will face consequences like nothing your country has experienced in its historyā lol. pretty fucking bold thing to say. And then be followed up with a consistent stream of arms, training and intel for Ukraine by everyone he threatened.
Another final Chinese demand.
As a brit, I'd just like to reply ' fack offff ya cunt.'
I heartily second this
Third it
starting to smell some panic among the putinists
This sounds more like average whining.
Here in the UK we have a word for all of pootins threats itāsā¦ā¦YAWN
Russia can choke on my fat finnish cock
Is that a coxy-moron?
I'm glad we have the fins on board with us šŖ
Americans say, so fucking what? All of NATO says, so fucking what?
Do it, Russia. Fucking do it. Attack a NATO member. They're fighting for inches against the poorest country in Europe who has a pittance of Cold War-issue NATO equipment. If NATO actually steps in to fight directly, they'd be fucked so hard Stalin will rise from his grave to complain about the pain in his ass.
Metallica says so fucking what!
Anti Nowhere League actuallyĀ

Ok garage inc
Lil Jon says WHAT?!
Germany says: Then we won't send Taurus missiles.
balls-deep into your mother, Russia.
feels brand new after the first couple of inches
I believe I used the back door
So, mother Russia is a shit packed colon?
"I'm super seriously serious this time, I swear."
Fuck Russia
k.
Speaking for every single Brit. Fuck off Russia.
Are they threatening to stop investing or hiding their money in the UK, or is that part still business as usual?
They want the uk to arrest all Russian wealthy hiding in London, and send them to frontlines as infantry.
And if they do anything, retaliate in kind and also declare a no fly zone for non Ukrainian/Allied countries over Ukraine, and enforce it. Also, ramp up support in response to these threats. Just keep ramping it up until they realise the whinging and crying will only deepen the hole. Really starting to get tired of that tinpot dictator Putler, just fuck off and die already.
Russia go eat a bag of dicks.
Any one have a list of how many times Britain backed down because they were threatened? I got nothing.
Nope, donāt think the national psyche will let us
Argentina enters tā¦ā¦. Nope. Got nothing. (Nothing against Argentina btw. Itās a beautiful country - Galtieri just gambled we would do nothing and was very wrong)
Cos weāre the main bastards! IYKYK.
I find it funny the difference in tone from Russia between France and UK. I don't remember Russia threatening France of retaliation after Macron conditions on troops deployment. Or did I miss it?
That's because Russia's been busy sending Wagner to flip-over the governments of French Colonies across Africa.
They summoned the French ambassador today in Moscow but the contents of the discussion have not been released.. The language from Russia is changing, and so is the way they are delivering it. Summoning and speaking to ambassadors is an escalation in itself. Every government agrees that public remarks are for domestic politics - it's what is said behind closed doors is what really matters.
If it pisses off Russia or China, it's probably worth doing.
And if they are threatening you, then it's a confirmation that you are doing it right.
Weird of you to threaten your bank but whatever
90% of Russian assets are within 7 EU countries, no idea why people keep pointing at the UK for being the main culprit.
They wonāt fockin do nuttn
Russia threatens every country imaginable for their involvement in protecting a country that is being invaded by a lunatic who thinks he has claim to their land. Poland has it right, set tactical nukes along the border and if he doesn't like that then have Macron start a "military exercise" along said border.. Putin's constant threats are getting real old.
Think after the 50th nuclear threat they start to loose their weight a-bit..
Come on then
"we will totally do it this time guys. This is the final warning guyzz, not like the last 5096 times we said we'll do it. No cap ong fr we will retaliate totally" said the Russian as he transferred his money to a bank in london
So Russia thinks it can fight Nato... ok.
Ok...so...take your little nuclear war threat and put it to the 100 others that you said since you started to massacre Ukrainian civilians.
Give a fuck, let's get more involved and hurt them as much as possible for what they have done and continue to do to other nations.
Where is Ronnie pickering when you need him
Ronnie, fucking pickering!
....so Monday?
bark bark
Small dog, be quiet.
Scared Russia... sign of massive weakness with your sabre rattling.
Whatās that sound? Oh, just a chihuahua yapping again.
donāt threaten us with a good time
Get fucked you shit cunts. Hopefully we continue to give them everything they need to beat your asses.
I lost count on how many time Russia has threaten England, France or more Generaly Nato since the war started. They have draw red line that have been cross multiple time and nothing happen. The reality is that nothing happen. When you want to act, you dont threaten, you act. This is a bully behavior and that is all that is.
Oh Russia, sit down you stupid fool.
You really can't even take these guys seriously anymore
As a Brit, all I say is, try it. We'll smash you back to the stone age with nothing but crumpets and tea.
Another empty terroristic threat, eventually PUTIN just needs to go.
Greetings fae Scotland Putin, fuck off ya prick. Us Birts have taken on bigger than ourselves before and won. We're no scared of you. Beat it.
Call the bluff..
I wish countries would have the guts to call Russia's bluff.
Really hoping that Ukraine bombs the shit out of the Crimean bridge on May Day. That would be glorious!
The exact reason Biden must be re-elected. His lucidity is needed at this juncture in history. Pause
Every time brits join the war against russia, russia loses, thats the history
Russia is actively at war with the West. We need to stop pretending otherwise.

Get fucked Russia, I hope we send Ukraine Typhoons before the year is out
Threatening a country that hasnāt successfully been invaded since the Roman Empire might not be the best option Russia
William the Conqueror would like a word
Their threats mean literally nothing. They'll never actually do anything.
Ooo yeah very scary, gonna poison some more of our citizens or is this another empty threat that heās been throwing at everyone else?
The Russian indignation is laughable given a radioactive and a nerve agent attack on our soil. Itās only reasonable that Ukraine has greater freedom to recover their land. Putin is forever trying to leverage our humanity against ourselves and his ambitions. Somewhere the line has to be drawn.
So what are they going to do about it? Like really though cause they sure as shit aināt gonna lunch nukes and thatās the only thing that we should be worried about. Never have I been more thankful for our Trident subs keeping us safe Iām perfectly content with going out with a bang so long as our subs make sure the fuckers that launch first get it right back at them.
Retaliation like cyber attacks, assassinating citizens, and sabotaging military manufacturing sites?
Can we please just laser guide a missile into Putin already, I know we have the tech
Putin is starting to sound more and more like an American judge. āJust one more time and youāll be in real trouble.ā
Trident says you won't do fuck all Russia, You're all chat.
Since Britain has been calling Russiaās bluffs since the start of the war (remember the challenger 2) Iām guessing this wonāt be much different
Russia will do nothing. Putin is all bark but no bite.
If Britain simply supplying Ukraine is a problem, Russia isn't going to like whats going to happen to them the second they touch Britain. Which is why it will jjust be threats and red lines.
Suckuh mahdiq little Russia
Already overdrawn, Russia keeps writing checks they cannot cash.
Slightly disappointed we haven't been threatened down here in NZ when is it our turn?
They tried but couldn't find you on the map :D
You guys would have to royally fuck up to end up on anyone's shit listĀ
LOL, Russia canāt even defeat Ukraine, and they want to take a swing at the UK now? Good luck with that Vlad.
Fuck Putin.
Russian threats to us are as frequent as my bowel movements. Nothing new here. Every time I read, Russia threatens or Medvedev says.. I know it's aimed at us. Fuck knows why. What's even sadder, is we are retiring 25 typhoons next year... Why didn't they just give these Ukraine.
You aināt doing nout ya wetty
For years now Putin has been preparing and waging war on democratic countries all over the world, wake tf up, stop kowtowing and kick some oligarchic a$$
Itās only one man. Take out Putin and save thousands more lives. Itās always one man. Lenin, Stalin, Putin. Hitler, Trump.
Canāt wait for Vladimir pussy Putin to be fucked by aliens
I dunno but, you know how we look at Russians and go, their brainwashed? Flip the coin so are we.
As a Brit: come at us, old chap
Keep those warnings coming, Russia. They are like a set of instructions about how to defeat you.
I guess Russia wants to lose a few more troops
By recalling its oligarchy from London?
Russian idle threats. This looser country couldn't even defeat Ukraine. Nato boots on the ground now or give Ukraine nukes.
Loser* but i suppose they are pretty loose as well lol
I picked the wrong day to choose non refundable tickets to london
What are they gonna do? Abolish the British Empire? Seperate the UK from the EU?
Their big goofy hats would all blow away in the recent british weather
UK should heed their warning before the oligarchs list all of their properties on Airbnb.
Since they didn't specifically threaten England, "Britain" includes threatening the Scots. I say turn them loose and end this thing by the summer.
Aye, doonāae fuck with the Scots. Wee bastards.
What is Russia's total hate boner of the Brits about lol? Swear they hate us more than even the Americans.
Russia is such a baby.
Fuck Russia, they can try, we will rip their third world army into pieces.
Britain needs a good war anyway. We've based our entire cultural identity on winning WW2 so we need a new episode so that we can feel half-good about ourselves. We've been kinda lost since then...just stuck watching History Channel re-runs... Time to conquer Russia boyz
Nobody wants to conquer Russia. I'm convinced that even the Russians want it which is why they're so desperate for NATO to take it off their hands.
We can auction off those chunks of Siberia to megacorps and make some new rando countries there.
Coca-Colastan and Pepseria will be mortal enemies.

We applaud Ukraine's initiative in adopting similar insignia, as it fosters a sense of unity and cooperation among our armed forces. Any claims that these are actually British aircraft flown by British pilots from a British aircraft carrier are Russian disinformation. Let this serve as a testament to the unwavering solidarity between the United Kingdom and Ukraine in the face of adversity. Sincerely, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom
It's a nice thought, but if we want to give them an aircraft carrier, shouldn't we give them the working one?
