Die neue US-Atomwaffendoktrin könnte zu einem erneuten amerikanischen Einsatz von Atomwaffen führen, wie Washington es einst gegen die japanischen Städte Hiroshima und Nagasaki getan habe, so der russische Sicherheitspolitiker.
„Die ganze Welt erinnert sich an Hiroshima und Nagasaki. Die amerikanische Nukleardoktrin verbietet es nicht, dies zu wiederholen, und genau das macht am meisten Sorgen", unterstrich der Politiker am Samstag.
Die neue Doktrin schlage zudem eindeutig den Weg der Konfrontation ein, gerade mit Russland werde anstelle von Kooperation auf eine gefährliche Rivalität gesetzt.

Russia hopes that the US will soon provide explanations for a number of ambiguous lines in its new nuclear strategy, Russian ambassador to Washington Anatoly Antonov told reporters...
ReplyDelete"This document, published today [Friday] in Washington, requires careful study and analysis, and I expect that in the very near future there will be meetings between Russian and American experts, where our colleagues from Washington will give explanations on many lines in this document which remain unclear," he said.
According to Antonov, Russian experts "managed to get acquainted only with the open part of this document, with the first remarks made by [US James] Mattis, Defense Secretary."
"But to me, as a man who once dealt with disarmament and nonproliferation issues for a long time, even these first remarks certainly raise questions," he added, TASS news agency reported.

Japan highly appreciates the new US Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) and intends to strengthen the deterrence capability of the Tokyo-Washington alliance, Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono said in a statement on Saturday...
ReplyDelete"Japan highly appreciates the latest NPR which clearly articulates the U.S. resolve to ensure the effectiveness of its deterrence and its commitment to providing extended deterrence to its allies including Japan, in light of the international security environment which has been rapidly worsened since the release of the previous 2010 NPR, in particular, by continued development of North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs," the statement said.
According to Kono, Japan shares with the United States the same recognition of "such severe current security environment."
"Japan will strengthen the deterrence of the Japan-U.S. Alliance by closely consulting on the extended deterrence, including nuclear deterrence, through the Japan-US Extended Deterrence Dialogue and other consultations," the minister added.
