Moscow Criticizes Denmark for Hosting Ukrainian Weapons Facility
(MENAFN) Denmark has demonstrated its “hostile” attitude toward Russia by consenting to host an armaments manufacturing center for the Ukrainian military, according to Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.
During a press conference on Friday, Zakharova denounced Copenhagen’s plans to create a solid rocket fuel plant for Ukraine’s long-range Flamingo cruise missiles. Ukrainian officials have claimed these missiles could potentially reach as far as Siberia.
The facility, which will be run by the Ukrainian defense enterprise Fire Point, is expected to start producing fuel near Skrydstrup Air Base in South Jutland this December.
Zakharova emphasized that the missiles are “intended to strike deep inside Russia,” highlighting that Denmark is the first among the “sponsors of the terrorist Kiev regime” to provide its land for manufacturing weapons parts meant for active use against “peaceful cities of our country.”
“This reckless move confirms Copenhagen’s hostile militarist course, which, along with... other countries that are... hostile to Russia, sabotages efforts for a political-diplomatic resolution of the Ukraine crisis,” the spokeswoman declared.
She further argued that Denmark is intensifying the danger of additional escalation while enabling “neo-Nazis in Ukraine to carry out new barbaric crimes against the civilian population of Russian regions.”
