Since at least 2014 The United Kingdom has been a major participant in NATO’s proxy war against Russia. During the hot phase of the war it has directed a drone and missile campaign in the Black Sea. It is likely responsible for current attacks against Russia related sea transport. It is developing new naval drones for further assaults on Russia.
Britain had initiated and run massive public relation campaigns blaming Russia for various outrages which, in fact, never had happened. Consider the Skripal Affair, the MI6’s Steele dossier used to launch Russiagate and other operations launched through the anti-Russian Integrity Initiative run by the UK government’s Institute of Statecraft.
It was the Brits who, during the war in Ukraine, directed the Black Sea Attack Network (BSAN) to push the Russian fleet out of Sevastopol in Crimea. British Storm Shadow missile were fired against various ships. Directed by British signal intelligence seagoing drones, made in Britain, attacked Russian transports as well as the Kerch Bridge.
Well, well, well, just imagine this: the Brits are making war on the Russians. I think the Russians would be well within the rules of warfare to attack the City of London and the British secret services as well as the British military, but, of course, the Brits are hiding behind the big, bad, boogeyman, the US nuclear umbrella and Article 5. The Russians have decided, like the Vietnamese to attack the personnel rather than the weapons, themselves, so the Brits can expect a lot of casualties for participating in the war. When will they ever quit playing their Great Game? They will be going through a painful leaning process if they continue on this road.
