Russia To Present ‘Evidence’ UK Special Forces Behind Crimea Attacks

Moscow says it has firm evidence that Britain’s military assisted with last weekend’s large-scale drone attack on its Black Sea fleet off Crimea.

Russia said it plans to summon the British ambassador “in the near future” in order to present “evidence” the UK was behind the operation, which had threatened to collapse the UN-brokered Ukrainian grain export deal.

While Russia has on Wednesday announced it is re-entering the grain deal after receiving “guarantees” from Ukraine and Turkey, it is still pointing the finger at London for sending “specialists” to help Kiev forces launch Saturday’s drone attack.

Kremlin officials have yet to provide proof, but stated the following on Wednesday:

“The U.K. ambassador will be summoned and will be given the appropriate materials,” Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said, adding the meeting would take place “in the near future.”

“The basic materials will be handed over as evidence to the British side and will also be shown to the general public,” she added.

Zakharova then said the evidence will be published for the world to see, following a blistering Saturday statement which alleged the Ukrainian army launched the drone attack “under the leadership of British specialists in the city of Ochakiv” in southern Ukraine.

The Russians were whining- as they do, that this was a Terrorist Attack. Pure. Unadulterated. Horseshit. The Admiral Makarov has launched missiles into Ukraine on more than one occasion. That makes it a military target. I don’t give a shit where it is berthed. If it was tethered up to a pier on the Moskva River at Gorki Park in the middle of Moscow, it’s a legitimate target as far as I’m concerned.

  The point isn’t that. It is the fact that the UK Special Forces allegedly did it……
  
  That is how you get WWIII

    Sometimes it isn’t what happened, rather who did it, that is the important point.

      I will be interested in seeing the proof. Not that I doubt it terribly but, as Reagan said, “Trust but verify”.
      
      And, they WERE whining about it being a “terrorist attack” initially. They have this idea somehow that war is like a game of tag where they can sit on goal and be “out of the field of play” …..
