Our will to fight the threat and safeguard our people and systems must be equal to its magnitude.
With Vladimir Putin threatening to turn the war in Ukraine into a “global” battle, relations with Russia are at an all-time high at the time of his intervention.
Putin has warned that he may target military installations in nations that provide Kyiv with weaponry, and the Kremlin has lowered its nuclear threshold.
Putin claimed that Moscow’s firing of a new ballistic missile in Ukraine on Thursday was retaliation for the United States and the United Kingdom permitting the use of missiles they had provided to hit targets in Russia.
Although UK officials will not confirm it directly, it is generally accepted that Ukrainian forces deployed British-made Storm Shadow weaponry in attacks in the Kursk region.
In the meantime, the US has authorized deep-in Russia strikes using its potent ATACMS missiles.
