Disputes arise between parties - Moscow issues another caution to the West about assaulting Russia.
The Kremlin in Moscow issues another strong caution to the West against permitting the use of their weapons in Ukraine for assaults against Russia. Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman, stated, "This would of course have consequences." According to Peskov, such actions will negatively affect the interests of the nations who've opted for heightening tensions. The NATO countries, specifically the United States, have opted to escalate the situation with "warlike statements." The nuclear power continually reminds that it'll defend its interests no matter what.
Allies of Ukraine are pushing for a decision that would permit the use of Western weapons not only for self-defense but also for offensive strikes on Russian territory. Ukraine calls for this to effectively fight Russian positions in the ongoing conflict, which has lasted over two years. Up until now, the country has primarily relied on its own rockets and drones for these purposes. The primary use of Western weapons has been against Russian positions within the Russian-occupied territories of Ukraine.
"Russia holds the right to respond with nuclear weapons"
In Vienna, Russian diplomat Konstantin Gavrilov cautions the West against crossing "red lines." Russia retains the right to respond to an attack, even with conventional weapons, if its state's existence is endangered. At an event of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), Gavrilov stated that Moscow will keep "necessary ambiguity about the possible type and extent of our potential nuclear response."
Kremlin propagandists in state-controlled media continue to promote the idea of a nuclear attack on Ukraine or the West. Now, political scientist Dmitry Suslov urges the Kremlin to consider a "demonstrative atomic explosion" outside the war zone to reinforce its deterrence policy.
A nuclear explosion shown globally on television could revive concerns about an atomic war, Suslov said. The most recent example comes from propagandist Vladimir Solovyov, who suggested turning the second-largest city in Ukraine, Kharkiv, near the Russian border, into nuclear ashes. Russian President Vladimir Putin has frequently mentioned the "unbeatability" of Russian nuclear weapons in relation to the conflict.

The threat of nuclear weapons comes into focus once again, as Russia warns of consequences if Western weapons are used against Russian territories in Ukraine. Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesperson, emphasizes this, raising concerns about potentially negative consequences for nations escalating tensions.
The use of nuclear bombs in the discourse is alarming, with Russian diplomat Konstantin Gavrilov cautiously reminding the West not to cross Russia's "red lines." Gavrilov suggests Russia could respond to an attack, even with conventional weapons, if its existence is endangered.
As the Ukraine war persists, calls grow for Western weapons for self-defense and offensive strikes on Russian territory. Dmitry Suslov, a political scientist, even advocates for a "demonstrative atomic explosion" outside the conflict zone to strengthen deterrence policy.
NATO countries, including the United States, are accused of escalating the situation with "warlike statements." Meanwhile, Russia maintains its stance, asserting its right to defend its interests, a claim that also includes the potential use of nuclear bombs if necessary.
The international community is closely watching these developments, seeking to avoid any escalation that could lead to a nuclear war. As tensions rise, Moscow and the West find themselves at a critical juncture, with a potential for a catastrophic conflict looming.
The statements made by Russian officials underscore the growing tensions, highlighting the need for diplomacy and dialogue rather than brinkmanship and escalation. The Kremlin's spokesperson Dmitry Peskov also emphasizes the need to consider the consequences of actions that could inflame the situation.
Russia's stance on the Ukraine war, with the potential use of nuclear weapons in the conversation, illustrates the severity of the conflict. The world watches and waits, hoping for a peaceful resolution to this ongoing conflict.
