Russia's nuclear policy now covers attacks on non-nuclear countries
25 Sep 2024 22:41

On Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a new nuclear warning to the West, stating that any conventional attack on Russia backed by a nuclear power would be viewed as a combined assault, News.Az reports citing The Washington Times .

At a meeting with the Russian Security Council, Putin said that in light of an “emergence of new sources of military threats and risks for Russia and our allies,” specialists from the Russian Ministry of Defense and other government agencies had conducted a year-long, in-depth review of the country’s nuclear doctrine.

“The updated version of the document proposes that aggression against Russia by any non-nuclear-weapon state, but with the participation or support of a nuclear-weapon state, should be considered as a joint attack on the Russian Federation,” Putin told the council.

He said the conditions for the launch of Russia’s nuclear weapons would be “reliable information about a massive launch of aerospace attack means and their crossing of our state border.”
