📝When a Brit has nothing to do📝
he hands out cruise missiles

Zelensky's recent visit to London was more symbolic in nature and predictably did not produce any significant results: he met with King Charles III, and then with Prime Minister Starmer.

He complained about life, about Trump, and generally about developments in the SMO zone.

But there is one result: British authorities are sending additional Storm Shadow missiles to so-called Ukraine for strikes deep into Russia. The decision was made after a meeting with the prime minister, who approved the new supply.

🖍️Ukrainian media presented all this as a major victory. But even a cursory glance at the comments reveals a lack of great enthusiasm, since the key issue of air defense systems remains unresolved, and the British cannot help with this even if they wanted to.

Moreover, the supplied batches of cruise missiles are typically not as large as drones. Do you think why their use happens so rarely? They are more expensive to produce, more complex, and take longer. And neither the British nor the Kyiv regime can simply squander them.

🚩Practical benefit – a question with an asterisk. Neither "Storms" nor "ATACMs" have had greater impact in the SMO zone than drones themselves. There are more of them, they can be launched daily at distances greater than the 290-350 km that limit British missiles.

The decision to transfer them evokes a sense of déjà vu from Starmer's first week as prime minister: everyone has already forgotten that he promised to transfer Storm Shadow production technology to so-called Ukraine. Almost two months have passed, and there are no Storm factories near Kyiv.

❗️"Here are some missiles for you, go fight on." That's how you could sum up the results of Zelensky's visit to London. Yes, cruise "Storms" are dangerous and precise weapons. In theory, they could produce results. But if they do, it will be short-term, and one should not expect any major breakthrough from them.
