A top UK army official has confidently stated the UK will be ready to combat Russia at any time if Russian president, Vladimir Putin invades another eastern European country.
This comes hours after Vladimir Putin warned the West that his new ballistic missiles they launched against Ukraine cannot be intercepted by any defense in the air in the world.
“There are currently no means of countering such a missile, no means of intercepting it, in the world. And I will emphasize once again: We will continue testing the latest system,” Putin said.
“Based on the test results, these weapons will also go into production. That is, we are developing a whole line of medium- and shorter-range systems,” he added.
Reacting to this, the deputy chief of the British defense staff, Rob Magowan confirmed their readiness to fight Russia during a meeting with the parliament defense committee
“If the British Army was asked to fight tonight, it would fight tonight. And I don’t think anybody in this room should be under any illusion that if the Russians invaded eastern Europe tonight, then we would meet them in that fight,” he noted.
