Andrei Fedorov, a former Russian deputy foreign minister and pro-Kremlin commentator, has raised concerns about potential semi-military retaliation against UK drone factories by unspecified sources. His comments come after the UK agreed to share blueprints for British-made components of the Scalp missile with Ukraine, which will allow domestic production of long-range weapons. Fedorov's warnings imply pressure from public opinion polls, journalists, and mass media on Russian President Vladimir Putin to take action against the UK. He did not clarify what a "semi-military" response might entail but suggested it could involve attacks on factories producing drones for Ukraine, potentially by sources other than Russia itself. These comments align with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov's criticism of the UK's decision to share missile blueprints, which he believes prevents "even the slightest progress" towards peace. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham is set to travel to the US next month with European leaders to discuss Ukraine's defense needs, following escalating Russian strikes in recent weeks. This will be Burnham's first official international trip since becoming prime minister. The visit comes after Burnham's visit to Ukraine, during which he reaffirmed the UK's support for Ukraine and pressured Russia over its actions. The UK's decision to share missile blueprints has been met with criticism from Moscow, who have threatened to gather data to locate and destroy any missile production sites.
