Tobias Ellwood described the assassination of Igor Krillov as 'a major event, the removal of a senior military officer responsible for nuclear weapons, not on the battlefield in Ukraine, but in Moscow, just miles from the Kremlin. This will be an embarrassment for Putin, as he cannot hide this from the Russian people who are generally not supportive of this war, and I would expect a major retaliation on the Russian side.'
Maria Zakharova emphasized the significance of General Krillov by stating, 'He worked fearlessly. He did not hide behind people's backs. He met problems head on. For the Motherland, for the truth. Bright be his memory.' This highlights not just a personal loss but a narrative of resilience and commitment to his duties.
