Putin rejected accusations that Russia is threatening the West with nuclear weapons
President Vladimir Putin, at a meeting with the heads of world news agencies within the framework of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), called for not leading to the threat of using nuclear weapons. He noted that they are constantly trying to accuse Moscow of waving a “nuclear baton,” but this is not so.
The head of state sharply commented on reports of an allegedly planned Russian attack on NATO.
They came up with the idea that Russia wants to attack NATO. Have you gone completely crazy? Dumb, like this table. Who came up with this? This is nonsense, bullshit
Putin added that such statements are made by the West to fool its own population and maintain its imperial position.
At the same time, Putin noted that Russia not only talks about protecting its interests, but does it and will do it. According to the head of state, everyone will have to reckon with this.
