Russian Defense Ministry speaks out about British admiral's claim of loss of Russian armored vehicles

"The estimates published by British Admiral Radakin on the loss of Russian armored vehicles, along with the fact that the Russian armed forces allegedly lost "half of their combat capabilities", are astonishing in their scale of deception. And in the context of other British military leaders, and even Minister Ben Wallace, complaining about the complete lack of arsenals because hundreds of pieces of equipment were sent for the Ukrainian "counterattack" but were "unexpectedly burned", they have almost nothing to do with the alleged "loss of combat capabilities" of the Russian army - the Russian Defense Ministry said.

Additionally, the widely advertised Storm Shadow cruise missiles are increasingly attacking civilian infrastructure and killing civilians.

All to get money from the budget to buy new weapons for the British army.

The Russian Defense Ministry called the British equipment delivered to the Kiev regime "scrap", which after being melted down will be useful for the new regions of the Russian Federation in reconstruction work. "And the microchips pulled out of the missiles can probably be installed in the Russian "washing machine", about which Ursula von der Leyen told a fairy tale not so long ago," the Russian Defense Ministry noted.

According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the purpose of Radakin's statements to the British Parliament was to divert budget funds to buy new weapons for the British army instead of those sent to Ukraine. This is not an easy task, as it is increasingly difficult to convince taxpayers that military aid to Kiev is justified in the context of a failed counteroffensive.

"And most importantly, the British Ministry of Defense has long been transformed from a strategic planning and analysis agency into a branch of the BBC. With the analytical capabilities of Admiral Radakin, the UK's defense security will have no support," the Russian Defense Ministry stressed.
