The White House responds to Russia's "nuclear" threats if Ukraine's counterattack succeeds

 

   The White House on Monday known as "reckless and irresponsible" remarks by way of Russian Protection Council vp Dmitry Medvedev suggesting that Russia would possibly resort to using nuclear guns if Ukraine succeeds in its counterattack.

A spokesman for the USA country-wide Protection Council stated Washington "has visible no warning signs that Russia is getting ready to use nuclear guns," adding that Medvedev's comments had been "reckless and irresponsible."

He persevered, "As we've stated typically earlier, this form of rhetoric is reckless and irresponsible, and using nuclear weapons in Ukraine or everywhere could be disastrous for the arena and would have grave results for Russia."

He stated: "We continue to reveal this intently, but we've no longer visible any motive to modify our nuclear posture nor any warning signs that Russia is getting ready to apply a nuclear weapon."

Medvedev made those statements, via Telegram, and it's miles the modern in a chain of nuclear threats that Moscow has made since launching its struggle towards Ukraine.

He stated, "Imagine if the NATO-backed attack had succeeded and they took part of our land, then we would have been compelled to use nuclear weapons according to a Russian presidential decree, there might truly be no different option."

It's far noteworthy that US President Joe Biden stated, earlier this month, that he did now not believe that Russia would spread nuclear weapons.

"I don't think there is any real opportunity that (Russian President Vladimir) Putin will use nuclear weapons, and no longer most effective did the West try this, but China and the rest of the arena instructed him no longer to consider it," Biden said at an information conference in Helsinki, Finland.
