NATO Nuclear Weapons : Russian President Vladimir Putin is going on a visit to North Korea. Meanwhile, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) threatened nuclear weapons by naming Russia and China. NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg said, member countries should keep nuclear weapons deployed. He said all these things on June 17. Jens Stoltenberg said that in view of the increasing threat from Russia and China, talks are being held to deploy nuclear weapons, take them out of the arsenal and keep them on standby. According to the report of the British newspaper Telegraph, the NATO chief said that there have been talks among the members to use their nuclear arsenal as a form of deterrence. He said that this gives a direct message to the enemy that we are definitely a nuclear alliance. Stoltenberg said that as long as nuclear weapons exist, we will remain a nuclear alliance.
Russia also gave its response
After this statement of the NATO chief, Russia gave its reaction. Russia has described the comment as escalating tensions. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that these comments appear to be contrary to the statement issued at the Switzerland conference, which said that any threat or use of nuclear weapons in the context of Ukraine is unacceptable. At the same time, referring to the Russian and Chinese threat, NATO said that a world where Russia, China and North Korea have nuclear weapons, but NATO does not have them.
Jens Stoltenberg responded
Jens Stoltenberg also responded to Russia’s allegations. He said, the Kremlin is trying to create confusion. Stoltenberg said that Russia always tries to create a situation in which it can blame NATO, but the reality is that NATO is transparent. At the same time, Russia alleged that the US and European allies are pushing the world towards a nuclear attack by giving weapons to Ukraine. However, President Putin has also threatened a nuclear attack several times. He has said that Russia can also use nuclear weapons for defense.
