Theresa May Praises British Troops for Defending the Country Against Russia

The British Armed Forces play a crucial role in ensuring the country's defense against the threat of Russian aggression in airspace and territorial waters.

This was stated by British Prime Minister Theresa May in a Christmas message addressed to British servicemen. According to the Press Association, the Prime Minister also praised the work of the servicemen in Salisbury, who cleared streets of traces of a nerve agent that had affected agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia.

“With the new year ahead, we face new challenges. But I know that you will continue to meet them as you always have,” said May.
