Russia warns Britain over cruise missiles

Moscow has said itreserves the right to take any measures deemed necessary to “neutralize a threat” posed by the British-made weapons

London’s decision to supply Kiev with long-range cruise missiles isanother step towards a “serious escalation” of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Friday. The ministry branded the move as “a very unfriendly step” on the UK’s part, which proves London’s “unprecedented level of involvement” in the conflict.

“Carried away with geopolitical games… the UK is apparently ready to cross any red lines and bring the conflict towards a totally new level when it comes to destruction and casualties,” the ministry’s statement read.

Russia “reserves the right to take any measures deemed necessary to neutralize a threat that may arise from Ukraine’s use of the British cruise missiles,” the ministry said, adding thatthose behind this “reckless step”and London’s “destructive activities” in general would be to blame for the consequences.

On Thursday, the UK confirmed it was handing several of its Storm Shadow cruise missiles over to Ukraine. The weapons can hit targets over 250km (155 miles) away. British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace claimed it was a “calibrated and proportionate response” by London to the situation in Ukraine.

Washington then indicated on Friday that it was reluctant to follow London’s example. The US has long refused to provide Kiev with longer-range weapons like the ATACMS missiles. In March, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley said it was not an option since the move would dwindle the Pentagon’s own stocks.

Some Western officials have reportedly suggested that giving Ukraine the option to attack targets inside Russian territory, which is recognized as such by the US and its allies, would be a major escalation of the conflict.

Kiev has long asked for such longer-range weapons. President Vladimir Zelensky’s top adviser,Mikhail Podoliak, said this week that longer-range missiles could be used to strike Crimea, which Kiev considers an illegally occupied territory. The peninsula joined Russia back in 2014 following a referendum.

Moscow has repeatedly warned Western nations that continued weapons deliveries to Ukraine make them de facto participants of the conflict – something many of them have vehemently denied.

On Thursday, theKremlin vowed to have an “appropriate answer” to the deliveries of the British missiles.

(UK and EU will regret these steps, this us not playing games, many more innocent Ukrainians and Russians will die due to this ill thought out game. Having Russians as an enemy will only increase the danger of ever achieving peace)

Borrell outlines EU’s issues with China

Brussels and Beijing are “rivals” that have a “problem of values,” the EU’stop diplomathas said

(That always cracks me when they say Borrell is the top diplomat of EU. He’s most of the time, not diplomatic at all!)

The EU has two major “strategic security issues” with China, which are the situation around the self-governing island of Taiwan and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, the bloc’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, said on Friday.

“We cannot have normal relations with China if China does not use the strong influence that China has on Russia in order to stop this war,”he told journalists in Stockholm. The EU and US, however, were quick to dismiss the twelve-point peace plan proposed by Beijing earlier this year, questioning China’s authority as a mediator.

Borrell described China as a partner, but also as a competitor, emphasizing its status as a “rival” of the EU. Brussels and Beijing represent two “very different” competing systems engaged in a global “battle of narratives,” and a “battle of offers” to the world, he said.

“Our systems – our political and economic systems – are different, completely different. We are multi-party democracies; they are a single party. We are market economies, the Chinese economy is being driven by the State, so we are very different,” Borrell told journalists.

“We are rivals, because we present our models to the rest of the world,” he added.

Borrelladvised against any attempts to prevent China from becoming a world power, arguing that it is simply impossible. Instead, he encouraged Brussels to “engage” Beijing while striving to “reduce dependence” on China. Earlier, he also suggested trying to influence China’s policies on the world stage.

“The important thing is not to prevent China from becoming a world powerbut to manage how it uses this power,” he told the European Defense and Security Summit in Brussels on Thursday. (This guy sounds insane like the morally & financially bankrupt EU can manage how China uses its power! Can’t wait for China’s response to that. Every EU country is deeply bound financially to China!)

“If it uses this power in accordance with international law, if it doesn’t put in danger our interests and values, we have to live with China on the world stage,” he added. (These guys don’t even adhere to international law)

Borrell reportedly struck an even harsher tone in an internal paper that was supposedly distributed among the bloc’s foreign ministers ahead of the Friday meeting.

There, the EU top diplomat called on the member states todevelop a “coherent strategy” to tackle Beijing’s global ambitionsamid a “hardening of the US-China competition,” according to the Financial Times (FT), which saw the document.

“China’s ambition is clearly to build a new world order with China in its center,” Borrell reportedly warned, calling the issue of China “much more complex” than the situation with Russia.

His words came amid the EU’s alleged plans to punish Beijing for its trade with Moscow. Earlier this week, FT reported that Brussels might target seven Chinese firms as part of its new sanctions package.
