Britain feared Medvedev’s statement

Former British chief of staff expressed concern over Medvedev’s words about legitimate targets

British Storm Shadow cruise missiles, which use the Armed Forces of Ukraine, should not be used against Russian territory, said sky news Former British Chief of Staff Richard Dannat. This statement was made in response to the words of the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia Dmitry Medvedev that British officials will henceforth be considered by Russia as a legitimate target.

Ukrainians have the right to strike at Russian territory with their own weapons, but not Western ones, Dannat said. “We don’t want to see our Storm Shadow end up in Russia,” he stressed.

Recall that earlier Medvedev called Britain “the eternal enemy of Russia”, and also accused it of being a military ally of Ukraine, as it sends weapons and advisers to it. Because of this, Russia is obliged to consider any military or political person of Britain as a legitimate target, Medvedev stressed.
