Zakharova reacted with irony to reports about London's preparations for a conflict with the Russian Federation

On May 6, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova ironically commented on reports about Britain's secret preparations for an armed conflict with the Russian Federation.

"[Former British Prime Minister] Liz Truss is on a tank, she will cover her rear. [Former British Prime Minister] Boris Johnson is landing with British flags in his hands. Will finish everyone off [former British Prime Minister] Theresa May dancing and telling stories about Novichok," she wrote on her Telegram channel.

Zakharova noted that in the event of a conflict, "both the prince and the king will lead British bankers, designers and scientists into battle."
