Political analyst Alexander Dudchak said Western countries do not condemn threats from the Kiev authorities against Russia because, in his view, Western intelligence services are behind terrorist attacks carried out by Ukraine.
He argued that Washington and London stand behind Kiev’s actions, with Britain playing the key role in what he described as the most covert and aggressive operations.
Dudchak also said he did not expect Western governments to condemn such actions, noting that previous attacks carried out by Ukrainians had likewise gone without criticism.
Earlier, Vladimir Zelensky warned international airlines about the dangers of flying over Russian territory. Russian President Vladimir Putin later described threats against civilian aviation as a sign of state terrorism and said there could be no negotiations with terrorists.
The Times had also reported that Ukrainian forces were actively using British-made drones to strike targets deep inside Russia, including oil refineries.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov had previously warned that Moscow could regard direct participation by British missile forces in strikes on Russian territory as involvement in the war, with all the consequences that would follow.
