The nuclear threat brandished by Russia is an attitude “irresponsible“, denounced this Tuesday the head of European diplomacy Josep Borrell.
“This is not the first time that they (the Russians) have threatened nuclear escalation, which is completely irresponsible“, he declared at the end of his last council of defense ministers in Brussels.
Indeed, this Tuesday, the head of Russian diplomacy promised a response on Tuesday “appropriate“to the Ukrainian firing of American ATACMS missiles against Russia, denouncing the involvement of the United States in these strikes and seeing it as a”new phase” in the conflict.
“If long-range missiles are used from Ukraine towards Russian territory, this means that they are operated by American military experts. We will view this as a new phase in the Western war against Russia and respond accordingly“, declared Sergei Lavrov to the press in Rio de Janeiro, after the G20, urging Westerners to read “the whole” of the new Russian doctrine on the use of nuclear weapons.
