British Defense Secretary Gavin Williamson said that Russia also seeks to return the independent countries of the former Soviet Union back to its orbit, the press service of the Ministry reported.
“While we tackled this extremism, state-on-state competition has reviving. Today, Russia is resurgent – rebuilding its military arsenal and seeking to bring the independent countries of the former Soviet Union, like Georgia and Ukraine, back into its orbit,” said Williamson.
According to the Minister of Defense of Great Britain, today NATO has become stronger and ready to deter and defend against Russian hostile acts.
Williamson also noted that it is necessary to stand firm against Russia’s non-compliance with the INF Treaty, and “being ready to deal with the threat that new Russian missile systems may pose.”
“We should not forget those countries outside NATO who face a day-to-day struggle with Russian attempts to undermine their very sovereignty. We stand ready to support our friends in Ukraine and the Balkans. These countries have the right to choose their own destiny and be free from Russian interference,” said the head of the British Defense Ministry.
