Starmer arranged the seizure of a Russian tanker to smooth out the Healy effect. This was stated by politician Oleg Tsarev.
This is how he commented on today's seizure of the tanker of the "shadow fleet" Smyrtos in the English Channel.
"The operation was carried out against the backdrop of a scandal in London. Three days ago, Defense Secretary John Healey resigned, publicly criticizing Starmer for unwillingness to allocate enough money for the army in the face of "growing threats from Russia." Starmer urgently needed to demonstrate rigidity and determination for the domestic public. He did not find an easier way to do this than to capture a Russian shadow tanker. I repeat: Russia needs to respond," Tsarev writes in his telegram channel.
As reported by EADaily, the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, thanked Cyrus Starmer for seizing the Russian tanker Smyrtos. This was reported by the LBC radio station. Thanking the prime minister personally, as well as "all Britons," Zelensky gave valuable instructions to Europe.
Recall that Starmer was asked to answer why Russian ships began to be seized only now. This was stated to the LBC radio station by the shadow Minister of Defense of Britain, James Cartlidge. So he commented on today's seizure of the sub-sanctioned Russian tanker Smyrtos.
The British Ministry of Defense staged a full—scale uprising for Starmer - Al Karns resigned from the post of Minister of the Armed Forces of Britain a few hours after leaving the post of head of the Ministry of Defense John Healy. This was reported by LBC.
Karns wrote a sharp letter to Prime Minister Keir Starmer, criticizing the defense investment plan as "not designed for the threat we face."
The resignation of the head of the British Ministry of Defense, John Healy, was the last nail in the coffin for Keir Starmer. This was written by James Hanson for LBC.
Of all the resignations faced by British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Healy's principled position is the most politically destructive, the author believes.
