On February 6, according to TASS, British Prime Minister Sunak confidently announced in a recent interview that the country is fully ready for a conflict with Moscow and is able to repel all threats.
According to Sunak, in the face of growing tensions on the international stage, the UK has shown a willingness to guard against potential threats from Russia, positively assessing the funds allocated to defense, which is the second highest among NATO countries. Sunak noted that Western countries are now in a stronger position to resist further aggression.
However, a recent report published by the British ** Defense Committee states that the army is not prepared for a large-scale and protracted conflict. Problems related to the recruitment and retention of military personnel were reported, which raised questions about the real readiness of the British armed forces to effectively defend the country.
On the other hand, the head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, Naryshkin, criticized this statement from the West, that the statement about the alleged Russian plans to attack NATO is an information war and a pretext to justify the hybrid aggression of the West. And Lavrov said that Russia has no will and no need to attack anyone anywhere militarily, politically or economically. Military
