DISINFO: UK is pushing Ukraine to fight Russia promising assistance with nuclear strike

SUMMARY

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and foreign minister Liz Truss are trying to convince Kyiv, and Zelenskyy personally not to conclude any kind of peace agreement with Russia, and continue fighting despite the losses, promising assistance including even a nuclear strike on Russia.

RESPONSE

Pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about the UK and war in Ukraine.

UK has not made nuclear threats against Russia. The claims of the UK allegedly threatening Russia with a nuclear strike have been debunked by Independent Russian media outlets the Insider and the UK media.

The UK has consistently supported Ukraine in its fight against the Russian invasion, providing military and humanitarian assistance.

See related examples of disinformation claims, alleging that US and UK are mainly responsilbe for escalation around Ukraine; US, UK and Canada tried to use Ukraine as a battery ram against Russia; NATO planned to unleash WWIII with the use of nuclear weapons against Russia.
