UK & France Planning Secret Nuclear Weapons Transfer to Ukraine; SVR

RUSSIA – The Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) on Tuesday said that the UK and France were planning a secret nuclear weapons transfer to Ukraine.

“London and Paris are preparing to arm Kyiv with a nuclear bomb,….. the elites are not prepared to accept defeat. It is believed that Ukraine needs to be equipped with ‘wunderwaffe.’ Kyiv will be able to claim more favorable terms for ending hostilities if it possesses a nuclear bomb or at least a so-called ‘dirty’ bomb,” SVR said in a press release.

It added that Germany refused to be party to the plan.

Options Under Consideration

The first option under consideration was a covert transfer of necessary nuclear components and technologies to Ukraine, followed by an information campaign claiming that the new Ukrainian nuclear capability was domestically developed, according to the press release.

The other option was to help Ukraine create a “dirty bomb” through the supply of French TN 75 warhead.

“We are talking about the covert transfer of …… European components, equipment, and technologies in this area. The French TN75 small-sized warhead from the M51.1 submarine-launched ballistic missile is being considered as an option,” SVR said.

“Kiev would be able to aspire to more advantageous terms of ceasing the hostilities if it possesses a nuclear or at least a so-called ‘dirty’ bomb,” it added.

“Everything secret will inevitably come to light. There are many sensible people in the military, political, and diplomatic circles of Great Britain and France who understand the danger their leaders’ reckless actions pose to the entire world,” it noted.
