Nukes in Ukraine. New warning from President Putin

Only “irresponsible people” can make statements about the possibility of transferring nuclear weapons to Kiev.

Russia will use all available weapons if Ukraine obtains nuclear weapons.

“We will not allow it.”

If someone transferred nuclear weapons to Ukraine, it would be a violation of non-proliferation commitments.

“If someone were to officially transfer something, then it would be a violation of all the non-proliferation commitments in the field of non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.”

Ukraine can’t make nuclear weapons, except for a dirty bomb.

“But even in this case the response will be absolutely proportionate to the threats to the Russian Federation.

Ukraine conflict

If Russia comes in possession of any advanced and powerful weapons systems, that does not change its approach to the settlement in Ukraine.

Russia remains ready to negotiate with Ukraine, and the conditions have not changed.
