Russia accused the United Kingdom of using a maritime route through the Black Sea for the delivery of weapons to Ukraine. This was stated by a representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry. According to him, NATO member countries use this route for delivering weapons to Ukrainian ports, which, in Russia's opinion, undermines regional stability. He also noted that Russia reserves the right to apply force to ensure its security.
"We are forced to draw attention to the activation of NATO and military-technical cooperation between the alliance and Ukraine, which clearly carries a provocative and antagonistic nature," the representative of Russia emphasized. Russia's words provoked a strong reaction from the UK Foreign Office. Representatives of the UK dismissed the accusations, calling them "fabricated" and stating that the UK adheres to international norms and laws.
