The situation on the border between Ukraine and Russia is very tense. Every now and then there will be reports of a possible Russian invasion and the forces that Russia has deployed on the border. Recently, a White House spokeswoman spoke about the provocation from Russia, while NATO President Jens Stoltenberg also spoke about the real danger of conflict between the West and Russia. That is why Great Britain decided to donate military equipment to Ukraine, especially anti-tank defense systems. British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said: “In light of Russia’s growing intimidation behavior, in addition to our existing support, the UK is introducing a new security assistance package to enhance Ukraine’s defense capabilities.”

– We have taken a decision to supply Ukraine with light anti-tank defensive weapons systems. In addition, a small number of UK staff will provide initial training for the ORBITAL process for a short period of timeThen he returned to the UK, he told the House of Commons. However, he did not disclose the number or type of weapons sent to Ukraine. He only said that the first systems were delivered on Monday and emphasized that they were “defensive in nature”.

There are also reports on the Web that military aircraft flying from Great Britain to Ukraine bypass German airspace. A third plane of this type was scheduled to depart today. It was reported earlier that Germany refused to allow two British C-17 transport planes to pass over its territory. As a result, they had to take a longer route, flying over the North Sea, and then Denmark and Poland.

The German Ministry of National Defense denied this information, claiming that it had not received any request for permission to fly. It is therefore possible that the UK has bypassed Germany in order to minimize the number of approvals required.

Although in mid-December, “Bild” reported that Angela Merkel was blocking the supply of arms to Ukraine. The newspaper quoted sources confirming what the Ukrainian Defense Minister, Oleksiy Reznikov, said in an interview with the Financial Times, that Germany prevented purchases for the Ukrainian army within the framework of NATO. The Netherlands was also supposed to issue a veto over the arms purchase.

– In December, Russia handed over to NATO and the United States a document that threatened to start a conflict in Ukraine. After the informal meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brest, Deputy Foreign Minister Marcin Przydać said that these demands were rejected at the level of NATO and the European Union. The Deputy Minister noted that in recent days more destabilizing Russian actions have been seen, such as a hacking attack on Ukrainian institutions. He also stressed that Poland has been trying for several months to prepare a document on the list of sanctions that the European Union may impose on Russia in the event of “the deterioration of the situation and mixed attacks.”
