Military chiefs believe the Army Tactical Missile Systems \u2013 with a 190-mile range \u2013 would give Kyiv a huge advantage for striking deep into Russian-held territory.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Putin tried to warn Britain off backing Ukraine\u2019s military action in his speech to the Vladivostok conference ahead of his summit with Kim.<\/p>\n
He said of the captured Ukrainians: \u201cDuring interrogation, they admitted they were trained under supervision of British instructors. Are they provoking our response at Ukrainian nuclear sites, stations, or what? Does the British leadership or the Prime Minister know what their special services are engaged with in Ukraine?<\/p>\n
\u201cOr do they have no clue? I assume it is possible British special services act on the orders of the Americans.<\/p>\n
\u201cEither way, we know the final beneficiary. I am afraid they simply underestimate. I know there will be howling after my words like \u2018these are threats!\u2019, \u2018nuclear blackmail!\u2019, and so on. I know some can say, \u2018They will say anything under a gun\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is not true. These things are seriously concerning, because they don\u2019t feel the ground \u2013 which can lead to serious consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Kim met Kremlin officials at Khasan train station in \u00adeastern Russia after \u00adcrossing the border in his bulletproof train.<\/p>\n
He was filmed alighting from the green luxury carriage onto a red carpet, waving and surrounded by his military and scientific chiefs. His welcome also included a military guard of honour and brass band.<\/p>\n
Kim and Putin were expected to meet last night at a venue rumoured to be a space centre in the Amur region. Moscow is expected to seek artillery and ammunition, while Pyongyang wants food, energy, and satellite and nuclear submarine tech.<\/p>\n
