UK Defense Secretary Ben Wallace seems to be seeing Russian ships in British waters everywhere he looks. Russia’s submarines are circling Britain’s entire coastline, Wallace told The Telegraph in an interview as he named Moscow as the UK’s “number one adversary threat.” He “revealed” that a submarine was spotted in the Irish Sea late last year claiming the UK’s waters were “regularly visited” by Russian ships and claimed Moscow had been carrying out “a number of operations, deliberately at Britain.”
“We’re regularly visited by nosy Russian ships, and we are regularly visited now by a number of Russian warships,” Wallace said. Demonstrating his disconnect from reality, he added: “We have tried de-escalation, we have tried methods but at the moment until Russia changes its attitude, it’s quite hard to see where we’re going to go. This is a country that killed someone in Salisbury.”
