The West claims that Russia wants to launch a military operation in Ukraine. The international arena is heated with this. This time, the United Kingdom has made new allegations against Moscow. They say Moscow is conspiring to bring a pro-Russian leader to power in Kiev. Russia's foreign intelligence service has denied the allegations in a statement issued Friday stating "Similar, baseless allegations concerning Russia's intelligence have been made more than once. The Foreign Office made the allegations in a statement issued on Saturday.
The Kremlin has long deployed troops along the Ukrainian border, Reuters reports. Moscow has said it has no plans to launch a military operation in the country. However, the United States and its allies are reluctant to believe this. Discussions are going on from time to time to reduce the tension. US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Pavlov held talks in Geneva, Switzerland on Friday. Under such circumstances, the United Kingdom launched new charges against the Kremlin.
Russia is considering former Ukrainian lawmaker Yevhen Nureyev as the head of a possible pro-Russian government in Kiev, according to the UK Foreign Office.
The United Kingdom has claimed responsibility for the attack. However, the United Kingdom has not provided any evidence in support of this claim.
UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has posted on Twitter accusing Russia of plotting to establish a pro-Russian government in Ukraine. He tweeted that the Kremlin's plot to bring the pro-Russian leadership to power in Ukraine would not be tolerated. The Kremlin knows that military intervention would be a big mistake strategically. Russia will have to pay a high price for that.
The United Kingdom has said in a statement that Russia's foreign intelligence service has denied the allegations in a statement issued Friday stating "Similar, baseless allegations concerning Russia's intelligence have been made more than once. Russian intelligence is working on a plan to invade Ukraine.
Russia did not immediately respond to a request for comment. However, former Ukrainian lawmaker Yevhen Nureyev told the British media Observer that the UK Foreign Office seemed confused. The allegations they have made are not logical. He was banned by Russia. Not only that, his father's money has also been confiscated in the country.
Yevhen Nureyev, 45, is known as a pro-Russian politician. He opposes Ukraine's rapprochement with the West. In a survey conducted by a research institute last December, Nureyev's name rose to seventh place in the list of possible candidates for the 2024 presidential election in Ukraine. Public support for him is 6.3 percent.
Ukraine is keen to become a member of NATO, a Western military alliance. However, Moscow has objections. Analysts say the objection was due to the deployment of Russian troops on the Ukrainian border. This was also discussed at the last meeting of US and Russian diplomats. The Kremlin told the meeting that Ukraine could not be made a member of NATO in any way.
As tensions rise on the Russian-Ukrainian border, Japan now says Tokyo is seriously considering the possibility of removing Japanese nationals from Ukraine. The government was informed of the government's move on Monday after the United States announced the evacuation of family members of U.S. citizens working at the embassy in the Ukrainian capital, Kiev.
