“I am not going to deny it, but I wonder whether we really have an interest in following all the British submarines with very old outdated nuclear warheads… all these threats are extremely exaggerated,” he said.<\/p>\n

He further asserted that no threat to the United Kingdom existed, dismissing such concerns. “This threat has been invented, absolutely, there is no threat at all from Russia to the UK,” he said.<\/p>\n
