Russia has issued an arrest warrant for Ben Wallace, Britain's former defense secretary, according to The Moscow Times. The warrant is reportedly connected to statements Wallace made at the Warsaw Security Forum last year.
Police have not officially confirmed the warrant's existence or specific charges. The move marks an escalation in Russian actions against Western defense officials critical of Moscow's foreign policy.
Wallace, who served as UK Defense Secretary from 2021 to 2024, has been an outspoken supporter of Ukraine and critic of Russian aggression. The warrant underscores rising tensions between London and Moscow.
