“President Putin must realize that he cannot win an illegal war that he started. It will not succeed, while the international community will become stronger in its confrontation with this aggression,” the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine says
Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov has confirmed that his country’s armed forces are already using British long-range Storm Shadow missiles. The relevant statement was made by the Minister of Defense during the joint press conference he gave with his British counterpart Ben Wallace, who is visiting Kiev, writes Novaya Gazeta Europe newspaper, citing RBC-Ukraina.
“We had the opportunity to shake the hands of the pilots, who were trained in Britain and are already successfully using the weapon called Storm Shadow,” said Reznikov.
This is the first time Ukrainian authorities have reported that such a weapon was used.
“President Putin must realize that he cannot win an illegal war that he started. It will not succeed, while the international community will become stronger in confronting this aggression,” Ukraine’s Defense Ministry was quoted as saying in a statement.
Reznikov in turn thanked Britain for its support for Ukraine since day one of Russia’s full-scale invasion.
