Putin Issues Nuclear Warning 

Vladimir Putin today issued a nuclear warning to the West in the event of a “massive” air attack on Russia. This includes the use of cruise missiles which the UK has supplied to Ukraine for Kyiv to target locations deep within Russian territory.

President Putin’s remarks came after his urgent meeting with Moscow’s top security council to discuss Russia’s nuclear deterrence.

Russia’s threat comes amid rising concerns in Moscow over Ukraine being allowed by Western powers – especially the UK and US – to use cruise missiles against it.

Last week the UK reportedly cleared the use of its ‘Storm Shadow’ cruise missile to be used to bomb Russia. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer even flew to Washington DC to meet US President Joe Biden. The two leaders reportedly discussed Ukraine’s use of weapons on Russian soil.

The Russian intelligence had information about such a possibility and had said earlier this month that “It has become necessary for Moscow to revise its nuclear doctrine because of the West’s escalation of the war in Ukraine.”

Speaking about the reports that the United States and United Kingdom are about to give clearance to Ukraine for Kyiv to launch cruise missiles on Russian soil, President Putin said this month that, “The West would be directly fighting with Russia if it gave such permission to Ukraine (to bomb Russia)” adding that Moscow would be forced to make “appropriate decisions” in such a scenario.

Russia is the world’s largest nuclear power. Together, Russia and the United States control 88% of the world’s nuclear weapons.
