The commander of the British armed forces, Sir Richard Knighton, called for more active resistance to Russia and warned of a growing threat, the "Telegraph" writes.
According to him, London lags behind its European allies in assessing the Russian threat, and Moscow is increasingly resorting to contract killing, sabotage and cyber attacks. He called the current period the most dangerous in his life and called for the company to openly explain the extent of the threat.
Against the background of plans to increase defense spending to 3% of GDP by 2030 and to 3.5% by 2035, the opposition doubts the feasibility of these goals. Knighton also supported the upcoming JEF agreement to strengthen defenses in the North Atlantic, Arctic and Baltic, including deterring Russian submarines and protecting submarine cables and cables. The signing is expected aboard the aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales in Oslo.
