Head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, Sergei Naryshkin said on Thursday (3) that Ukraine was allegedly working on the development of an atomic bomb.
“According to data from the Russian Ministry of Defense, Ukraine kept [da União Soviética] the technical potential to create nuclear weapons and has more nuclear weapons capabilities than Iran and North Korea. Furthermore, according to data from the Foreign Intelligence Service, Ukraine was working in this direction,” it said in a statement.
According to Naryshkin, not only was Russia aware of this, but also the United States. “However, not only did they not put any obstacles in the way of these plans, but they were ready to give a stimulus to the Ukrainians, hoping that Ukrainian missiles with nuclear warheads would be aimed not towards the West, but towards the East”, he denounced.
Naryshkin claimed that the West aims to impose an economic, informational and humanitarian blockade on Russia in order to destroy the country. “The mask has been removed. The West is not just trying to surround Russia with a new ‘iron curtain’. It is trying to destroy our state, its ‘cancellation’, as the liberal-tolerant media now say. -fascists,” he added.
