MOSCOW, Russia - Russia on Wednesday warned of a "serious" escalation of the Ukraine crisis if Britain gives Kyiv armour piercing ammunition which contains depleted uranium.
He added that the use of such ammunition would "sharply reduce" Ukraine's ability to "produce high-quality, uncontaminated food." Moscow has been reacting to a written response by a UK defence minister, Annabel Goldie, who was asked whether "any of the ammunition currently being supplied to Ukraine contains depleted uranium."
Depleted uranium is a by-product of the nuclear enriching process used to make nuclear fuel or nuclear weapons. It is around 60 percent as radioactive as natural uranium.
