"The UK and France are reportedly set to 'arm Ukraine with a nuclear bomb', according to stunning new claims from Russian intelligence. The SVR added that Kiev's European allies were set to send components and technology covertly to Ukraine. The agency also claimed that Germany had refused to be part of any such attempt. "British and French elites are not yet prepared to accept defeat," it stated on Tuesday. "It is believed that Ukraine must be supplied with what is termed the 'Wunderwaffe' - a miracle weapon. Kiev may seek more favourable terms to end the conflict if it possesses a nuclear or at least a so-called 'dirty' bomb. Berlin, wisely, has refused to take part in this perilous venture". "One option being considered is the French TN75 warhead, a small-sized device designed for the M51.1 submarine-launched ballistic missile," it went on, before saying that "their plans constitute a gross violation of international law, particularly the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, and pose a serious threat to the global non-proliferation regime." Footage shows key moments of UK PM Sir Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron and Ukraine's Volodymr Zelensky together - agreeing a deal on sending troops to Ukraine post-ceasefire back in January following a so-called 'Coalition of the Willing' meeting, as well as the viral moment Macron appeared to gesture about Zelensky to Starmer during a group photo. They also famously held talks at the Pope's funeral last May. Also included are the three men with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz at talks in the UK's Downing Street in December. Starmer is also seen aboard one of the UK's own, ageing nuclear-armed submarines in March last year. London, Paris and Berlin have not commented on the claims at time of publication. On Tuesday, the UK expanded sanctions on Russia, including another 240 firms and seven individuals - in its largest package yet."
