Daily Mail: Shipment of tanks to Ukraine could turn Europe into a radioactive graveyard

MOSCOW, January 22 – RIA Novosti. Columnist writes that delivery of Western tanks to Ukraine could turn Europe into a radioactive graveyard daily mail Peter Hitchens.

According to him, the supply of tanks will only prolong the conflict in Ukraine. Hitchens called the West’s decision “the greatest act of stupidity”. He also attacked British MPs who “did not oppose the movement”.

The Observer concluded that it was not in Great Britain’s interest to follow Washington’s policy regarding the Ukraine conflict.

“A prudent and proper foreign policy is to help the parties reach a lasting compromise. We send tanks instead. It looks like the firefighters are starting to start a fire,” Hitchens said.

Kyiv has been demanding armored vehicles for offensive operations for several months now. While British officials promised Ukraine Challenger 2, Washington said it did not yet see any sense in handing over Abrams.

As Vladimir Putin has repeatedly emphasized, Russia has never refused to negotiate with Ukraine, but the Kyiv authorities forbade it to themselves. According to the president, Moscow is trying not to turn the wheel of the Ukrainian conflict, but to end it. At the same time, Western countries are increasingly talking about the need to continue hostilities, fill Ukraine with weapons and train APU fighters on their territory.

The Kremlin has repeatedly stated that the supply of Western weapons only prolongs the conflict and does not bode well for Ukraine, and arms transport has become a legitimate target for the Russian military.
