Information about the use of chemical weapons in Mariupol is currently being verified. The West has already prepared options for the answer, if this is confirmed.
British Armed Forces Secretary James Happy said the British government “failed to verify” the information. However, if it were proven. Putin needs to know that there are all possible answers from the West on the table.
It is important to be clear that there are some things that are out of the box. The use of chemical weapons will get an answer, and there are options for what that answer could be,” Happy said.
Recall that earlier world leaders promised Russia serious consequences in the event of the use of chemical weapons. True, no specifics. Thus, US President Joe Biden threatened Russia that the approach to NATO's participation in the war in Ukraine could change dramatically.
The West admires the Armed Forces of Ukraine
James Happy also praised the Ukrainian military in Mariupol for their amazing heroism. “I just think they are amazing people and they represent everything we have admired in the Armed Forces of Ukraine over the past six weeks,” the minister said.
He also called the atrocities of the Russian occupiers in Bucha, Gostomel and Irpin horrendous . And he said that the world has not yet seen all the crimes of the invaders, because some cities are not yet accessible.
