To compare the possibilities of the Armed Forces and the Army of the Russian Federation: in Britain named the reason for Ukraine Storm Shadow
The head of the UK Foreign British Commission Alicia Kerns on Thursday, May 11, during a speech in parliament, stated that she welcomes the supply of Storm Shadow missiles, as "we need to do everything in our power to compare the opportunities of our Ukrainian friends who oppose well -armed terrorist state. " About it reports The Independent.
The head of the Ministry of Defense of the UK Ben Wallace, in turn, called the search for ways to limit the financial resources of the Russian Federation with a good idea. Kerns said that she was concerned about the fact that the Putin military machine is still on the move. "We need to provide military assistance, but we also need to make sure that we have blocked the financial flows that allow Putin to continue this war," Kerns explained.
She added that she lobbies the idea of "Economic Ramstin" - meetings of ministers of finance of the countries of the "Greater Seven" or allied countries to agree the necessary economic measures for the Russian military machine to die. UK Defense Minister Ben Volles called it a good idea. According to him, Ukraine has an inalienable right to self -defense. Wallace added that difficulties in the Russian Federation have already been difficult.
The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are no longer able to re -arry, since many components of the components of technological military development of the Russian Federation are issued in the Western countries. The Minister of Defense said that Ukraine would be transferred to Ukraine to close the need for such weapons. But he refused to inform how many Storm Shadow missiles would eventually be put in Ukraine.
"In terms of use, supplying or transmission of Storm Shadow missiles (" Storm " - English), the United States supported this decision of the UK," he explained. Storm Shadow-French-British technology, work on these winged missiles began in the early 1990s. They were used in Iraq in 2003, and the armies of France, Italy and the United Kingdom also used them in Libya in 2011. "Storm Shadow" was used for the "Islamic State" in Syria and Iraq.
The transmission of Storm Shadow's long -range missiles to Ukraine has become a new milestone in the history of arms supply during the confrontation of a large -scale invasion of Russian troops. Kyiv has asked for a few months this type of rockets (ATACMS) from Western allies. But all requests were rejected, and US representatives were unambiguous against the supply of long -range missiles.
