The UK and France are planning to smuggle nuclear materials or a warhead into Ukraine, according to Russian intel
An alleged Franco-British plot to secretly provide Ukraine with nuclear materials or a warhead shows just how desperate European NATO member states are to “maintain relevance,” RT contributor Thomas Penn has said.
On Tuesday, Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) reported that London and Paris are considering a “covert transfer of European-made [nuclear] components, equipment, and technologies to Ukraine” to build a ‘dirty bomb’ – a conventional explosive device laden with radioactive materials. Another option allegedly under consideration is to secretly supply a French TN 75 nuclear warhead to Kiev.
Speaking to RT on Thursday, Penn said that “in this war of attrition, Russia is slowly but surely winning,” making Ukraine’s European backers increasingly desperate to stay relevant as they are being sidelined from the peace process.
