Russia Accuses UK and France of Plotting to Arm Ukraine with Nukes
Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service alleges UK and France plan nuclear aid to Ukraine to influence peace talks, with Moscow threatening nuclear retaliation if suppliers are involved.
- On February 24, 2026, Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service alleged the UK and France planned to supply Ukraine with nuclear weapon components, warning this could undermine efforts to end the war.
- Citing legal and strategic concerns, the SVR said the transfers aimed to let Kyiv secure more favorable terms in peace talks and would be disguised as Ukrainian developments to avoid scrutiny.
- Medvedev amplified the claims, saying 'There can be no shadow of a doubt that Russia, under such circumstances, would have to use any means necessary, including non-strategic nuclear weapons, against targets in Ukraine that pose a threat to our country', while Peskov called for investigations in the UK and France. No evidence was presented, and Western officials dismissed the accusations as disinformation.
- The Federation Council of Russia urged British and French parliamentary investigations into the SVR's claims, while senior Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov warned Moscow will use these allegations as leverage in negotiations and Medvedev signalled strikes could target supplier countries labeled 'accomplices' in a nuclear conflict.
- Taken together, the claims arrive amid recent treaty shifts including the New START treaty expiry earlier this month, fitting a pattern of Russian nuclear rhetoric that threatens the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons .
