Moscow Warns That NATO Is Preparing For A Nuclear Strike On Russia

NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) is preparing for a nuclear strike on Russia, according to Vladimir Kulishov, the first deputy director of Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), and head of the country’s Border Guard Service. So far, NATO seems content to push Russia to its limits.

”NATO intelligence operations close to the Russian border are on the rise. Forces of the alliance are intensifying military training, in which they work out military scenarios against the Russian Federation, including nuclear strikes on our territory,” Kulishov told the news agency RIA Novosti on Tuesday, according to RT. 

Russian officials have previously criticized NATO’s nuclear sharing scheme, under which some American weapons are stored in non-nuclear nations, including Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Türkiye.

Moscow is particularly concerned that non-host nations are involved in training exercises on how to deploy the weapons. In January 2022, weeks before the Ukraine conflict escalated into open hostilities, Vladimir Ermakov, the head of the non-proliferation department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, said in an interview that Moscow views the US-led military bloc’s moves as being directly targeted against the country.

Russia has blamed NATO’s expansion in Europe and its increasing presence in Ukraine for the ongoing crisis, which it considers part of a US-led proxy war against it. The military support which Washington and its allies have provided to Kiev may result in an unchecked escalation and a direct war with Russia, which is likely to result in a nuclear exchange, officials in Moscow have warned. -RT

Nations that donate longer-range weapons to Kiev are currently considering lifting restrictions on their use against targets located in what they recognize as Russian territory. British Foreign Secretary David Cameron has claimed that Kiev “has the right” to deliver such strikes with arms it gets from the United Kingdom.

Moscow responded to Cameron by saying that if British weapons are used by Ukraine in this war against Russia, that it will attack the U.K.

But is it just one more empty threat from Russia? Are they serious this time? There appear to be more warnings and red-line crossings than actual follow-through, which is a good thing. But just how long can that last?
