Alex Salmond’s Alba Party has slammed the UK and the US governments for “hyping the prospect of war” in Ukraine.
The pro-independence movement led by the former First Minister blamed western governments and the media for stoking panic over the threatened invasion by Russian forces.
Salmond, whose chat show is still broadcast on the Kremlin-backed propaganda channel RT, left it to Neal Hanvey to voice the party’s opposition to the drumbeat of war.
