Shoigu reassured Ukraine about the use of the most powerful weapons
Russia does not intend to use tactical nuclear or chemical weapons in Ukraine. Publications on this matter in Western media are lies.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu announced this today at the X Moscow Conference on International Security, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“From a military point of view, there is no need to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine to achieve our goals. The main purpose of Russian nuclear weapons is to deter a nuclear attack; their use is limited to emergency circumstances, which are defined in Russian guidance documents that are open to the public,” Shoigu said.
He called allegations about the possible use of chemical weapons in Ukraine absurd.
“Let me remind you that, unlike the United States, such weapons were completely destroyed in our country back in 2017 as part of the fulfillment of international obligations. At the same time, provocations using toxic substances have become the hallmark of Western-sponsored so-called public organizations like the White Helmets in Syria,” the minister emphasized.
He believes that in this way the United States is trying to divert attention from its own biological laboratories in Ukraine.
