Xinhua News Agency, May 13, the Russian Foreign Ministry issued a statement on Britain's decision to provide "Storm Shadow" cruise missile system to Ukraine on 12 May. The statement said that Russia sees this as another extremely hostile step taken by the British side, which is aimed at further sending weapons to Ukraine and will lead to a serious escalation of the situation in the area of special military operations. The provision of long-range high-precision missile systems to the Kiev regime confirms Britain's unprecedented involvement in the conflict in Ukraine. The statement stressed that Russia reserves the right to take all necessary measures to remove the possible threat posed by the use of British cruise missiles in Ukraine.
