Statements by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg about the possible putting of the alliance's nuclear weapons on alert are yet another escalation of tension.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters about this on June 17.“What Mr. Stoltenberg said clearly does not fit into the context of the same declaration (of the peace summit on Ukraine in Switzerland ), which was adopted the day before, which was not signed by everyone, which is exactly the same, if I’m not mistaken , it is said that such rhetoric is inadmissible. This is nothing more than another escalation of tension,” Peskov said.
He added that Russian President Vladimir Putin never touches on the topic of nuclear weapons and their use on his own initiative - every time he talks about it only when answering relevant questions from journalists. In particular, this was the case on June 5, when the head of state met with the heads of world news agencies.
Слова генсека НАТО Йенса Столтенберга о возможности приведения ядерного оружия в состояние боевой готовности не укладываются в контекст декларации швейцарского саммита, сообщил пресс-секретарь президента РФ Дмитрий Песков.
