Pentagon has not confirmed the media information about nuclear weapons throwing

The United States closely monitor the nuclear forces of the Russian Federation and see no prerequisites to change the placement of their troops responsible for restraining and applying YaO. The US Department of Defense does not have information that Russia is carrying tactical nuclear weapons for its further use against Ukraine. About it writes Reuters, referring to a high -ranking official of Pentagon Laura Cooper.

According to her, she has no information that would confirm the rumors of the media about Russia's tactical nuclear weapons. Pentagon official claims that she can only refer to open sources. Cooper emphasized that the United States is closely monitoring the nuclear forces of the Russian Federation and today there is no prerequisite for Washington to change the placement of its own units responsible for restraint and use of YaO.

"I have nothing but open source reports," Kuper added, answering the request of information about the overturning of Russian nuclear weapons by rail. It is worth noting that on October 3, the British edition of The Times reported the movement of a "nuclear" Russian train towards Ukraine.

The echelon with the equipment that was fixed by the Roszma belongs to the 12th department of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, which, for its part, is responsible for the operation of the nuclear arsenal of the country. The Times journalists suggested that Russia has sent a train towards Ukraine for the task of a demonstrative blow on the Russian-Ukrainian border.
