Kwanini Uingereza imekuwa mshiriki muhimu wa vita ya Ukraine tangu vita ianze?

[Nkerebhuke]

Tangu vita baina ya majirani hawa walili ianze imenifanye niwaze nikwanini Uingereza amekuwa sehemu muhimu sana kutoa msaada wa hali na Mali kwa Ukraine kuweza kukabiliana na urusi, kuanzia magazeti yake propaganda, mafunzo kwa Askari, upishi wa propaganda, silaha hata kutoka makazi kwa wakimbizi.

Uingereza anafahamika kuwa mwenye uwezo wa kubuni mbinu ya mapigano ya ana kwa ana yaani close contact combat kwa wasio jua mambo ya kimedani uwezo wa jeshi unapimwa hapa. Yaani mnazitwanga ana kwa ana ni kurushiana karanga na grenade.

Mara kadhaa urusi amekuwa akimtupia lawama super power huyu wa zamani kuwa na kiherehere na kuingilia operations yake. Swali langu kwa wapenda mambo ya medani wenzangu nini msukumo wa Uingereza kumsaidia Ukraine kiasi hicho mpaka raia wake hawalalamiki. Kuanzia wakaki wa Boris mpaka sasa hvi kwa muhindi

Britain is first nation to send Storm Shadow long-range missiles to Ukraine

The weapons, which cost about £2.2m each, outstrip the US-supplied Himars and can be fired deep behind Russia enemy lines

Britain is supplying Ukraine with Storm Shadow missiles that can hit targets nearly 200 miles away, the longest range rockets to be used against Russia.

Ben Wallace, the Defence Secretary, confirmed reports that the RAF cruise missiles are arriving to bolster Ukraine’s anticipated counter-offensive.

The move comes after the US and other allies ruled out sending longer-range missiles to Ukraine over fears of provoking Vladimir Putin.

The Storm Shadow missiles could be fired deep behind enemy lines, potentially disrupting Moscow’s supply chains.

Their range of 186 miles far outstrips the US-supplied Himars, which can hit targets up to 60 miles away and have been instrumental in pinning back the Russian army.

Mr Wallace told the Commons on Thursday that “the Prime Minister and I have now taken the decision to provide longer range capabilities” to the country.

The Kremlin warned before Mr Wallace's speech that supplying Storm Shadow missiles would require “an adequate response from our military”.

Mr Wallace responded that “it is the actions of Russia alone” that have led to Storm Shadow missiles being provided to Ukraine.

He told MPs: “It is my judgment as Defence Secretary that this is a calibrated and proportionate response to Russia's escalations.”

He added that “while these weapons will give Ukraine new capability, members should recognise that these systems are not even in the same league as the Russian AS-24 killjoy hypersonic missile” or “even the Kalibr cruise missile with a range of over 2,000 kilometres, roughly seven times that of a Storm Shadow missile”.

The Storm Shadow cruise missiles cost about £2.2 million each and are fired from a fighter jet, as opposed to the Himars ground launchers.

The missiles carry a specialist penetrating 450kg warhead designed to destroy hardened and buried targets from long range. They fly at a low altitude to avoid detection.

No details have been released about numbers to be sent.

Ukraine has been asking for long range precision munitions for months to hit Russian command posts, ammunition and logistic depots and key pieces of battlefield equipment such as air defence.

The US has resisted pressure from Kyiv to send the long range surface-to-surface Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS), supposedly over fears they could be used to hit targets inside Russia; an act deemed too sensitive and escalatory, given the poor performance by Russia’s forces since the launch of the full-scale war in February 2022.

Rishi Sunak has made it clear that he wants the UK to be the first nation to send longer-range missiles to Ukraine.

Speaking at the Munich Security Conference in February he said: “Together we must help Ukraine to shield its cities from Russian bombs and Iranian drones, that’s why the United Kingdom will be the first country to give Ukraine longer-range weapons.”

The Storm Shadows have been supplied independent of the International Fund for Ukraine (IFU), a UK-led mechanism for procuring weapons through like-minded allies.

The fund recently invited industry suppliers to submit expressions of interest to provide equipment to meet missiles or rockets with a range of up to 300km to launch from land, sea or air.

However, defence sources said to have gone through this route, which has an executive panel consisting of the UK, Norway, Netherlands, Denmark and Sweden, would have taken “ages”.

They added that the UK has “often led the charge” in supporting Ukraine, citing thousands of Next-generation Light Anti-tank Weapons (N-law) and the 14 Challenger 2 tanks sent to Ukraine, as well as Ukrainian pilot training on RAF fighter jets.

“With getting these weapons for Ukrainian, what they need is always the goal,” they said.

[Black Sniper]

Raia wa Urusi wamewekeza UK zaidi ya £27bn
Na hii ndio sababu ya kutamba kama ndio kinara wa Dunia likija suala la usalama

Kwa Urusi kuivamia Ukraine hapo Uingereza waliweka wazi baada ya Urusi kuweka mines na kuuwa raia zaidi ya 6,000 na kujeruhi zaidi ya elfu 10

Propaganda zilianza hapa na walitangaza kila mahali kuwasaidia watu wa Ukraine kwa hali na mali na Charities nyingi zikaanza kukusanya hela na chakula na madawa kupeleka Ukraine

Watu walijitolea sana na wengine waliamua kwenda kabisa huko kuwasaidia kuwaokoa au kuwatibu bure

Hawakuishia hapo waingereza pia wakaamua kuwachukua kwa msaada wa serikali wananchi wa Ukraine

Yaani unaomba upewe raia wa Ukraine aje kuishi na wewe kwako
Wa Ukraine 25,000 waliingia hapa na kuishi katika nyumba za wazungu wakila na kulala bure na nyumba nyingi sana walipeperusha bendera ya Ukraine kuonyesha solidarity

Hapo serikali ikaanza kuwapa msaada mwingine na watoto wakaenda shule

Kusema kweli UK inaongoza kwa mambo mengi sana siwasifii ila nao wanaangalia maslahi yao pia

Tangu vita baridi ianze wameingia nchi nyingi sana kuanzia Sierra Leone, Syria, Iraq na nchi zingine kibao
Kote huko kwa maslahi yao binafsi zaidi
William Hague kuna wakati alisema an "active and activist" foreign policy

Ila wananchi wana umoja na kukubaliana na mengi likija suala la maslahi yao

UK gov is the root the bloodline of NATO. The seat of All evil. Every evil or good tree has its roots. US gov is the muscles of UK to make blood money through wars..,think I’ve said that in one of my first tweets on Twitter last year. That’s why UK gov rarely ‘start war’ on the surface but they use intel, pysops and espionage to fuel the wars their muscles US gov start for them.

Not exaggerating for Medvedev to say this. "Britain always has been, is now, and will be our eternal enemy
