Moscow Entitled To Use Nuclear Weapons If Russias Existence Threatened - Medvedev

Russia has the right to use nuclear weapons, if necessary, in strict accordance with the state policy in the field of nuclear deterrence, for example, if the country's existence is threatened, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said on Tuesday.



"Russia has the right to use nuclear weapons if necessary, in predetermined cases, in strict accordance with the Basic Principles of State Policy in the Area of Nuclear Deterrence. If we or our allies are attacked using this type of weapon. Or if aggression with the use of conventional weapons threatens the very existence of our state," Medvedev wrote on Telegram.

According to Medvedev, US President Joe Biden and British Prime Minister Liz Truss, as well as other Western politicians, "are drinking the Atlantic haterade, demanding that Russia take its hand off the ‘nuclear button’ and threatening us with devastating consequences if Russia uses nuclear weapons." He also emphasized that Truss had even expressed readiness "to start an exchange of nuclear strikes with our country."

Medvedev stressed, citing Russia’s nuclear doctrine, that Moscow could use nuclear weapons in response to aggression against Russia and its allies involving such weapons, or an attack involving conventional weapons that threaten the very existence of Russia.
