"This work is currently in advanced stage, and there is a clear installation to make a correction that, in particular, is conditioned by the study and analysis Western opponents in connection with his, " - said the deputy head of the Foreign Ministry of the Russian Federation Sergey Ryabkov. He also stressed that "the process of proving the relevant document is ongoing," but added that it is too early to talk about the specific terms of its completion.
"The time of completing this work is quite difficult, given that it is the most important aspects of ensuring our national security," Ryabkov argued. According to him, the foreign policy situation is seriously exacerbated by the actions of the United States and their allies, and Moscow continuously analyzes how much its documents in the field of nuclear determination are in line with new challenges.
Recall recently the New York Times reported that Joe Biden had approved a classified plan of a nuclear strategy. According to the publication, the plan, among other things, aims to prepare the United States for possible coordinated nuclear challenges from China, Russia and North Korea. It is expected that an undeserved thematic message for a congress of nuclear strategy to be viewed before Biden leaves a presidential position in January 2025.
Meanwhile, experts who spoke focus suggest that the statements of Russian officials to change the nuclear doctrine of the Russian Federation are more related to the upcoming elections of the US President, and not with the Kremlin's plans in the war with Ukraine. In particular, political scientist Oleksandr Kochetkov in conversation with focus states: "First of all, it should be noted that the doctrine is a document based on nuclear security civilized democratic countries, such as the US.
Nuclear weapons, in which volume and so on. However, the law of gravity will not be influenced by the law. " Emphasizing that the Russians have been processing the fourth nuclear doctrine of the fourth, the expert stated: "And every time, something there constantly processing, they inform the world that they seem to strengthen their norms of application of strategic and tactical nuclear weapons.
These statements, in particular, is a diplomatic version of all that Medvedev writes on social networks, promising everyone and everything is with the ground. speaking". Once again raising the nuclear theme of Ryabkov, a political scientist was convinced, that the Russian Federation has the right to use nuclear weapons if the territory of Russia is captured.
"But the chip is that this hobby has been going on for a long time, because they do not control part of Zaporizhzhya and Kherson regions, which they assigned to themselves at the constitutional level. That is, according to their logic, the Armed Forces seized these" their "territories, and therefore they are yet A few years ago, they should use nuclear weapons, but they do not do it.
The expert calls the statements of the Deputy Head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, the expert calls the chronic horror stories of the Russian Federation, since what is written on paper is in no way supported by appropriate actions. "For example, Russians do not carry out any tests of nuclear weapons underground, etc. That is, the Russian Federation, and thank God, does nothing that is a marker of readiness for nuclear weapons.
And they can write anything - paper will stand everything" , - sums up Alexander Kochetkov. For his part, the executive director of the Center for Applied Political Studies "Penta" Alexander Leonov in conversation with focus makes the following emphasis: "The statement of the deputy Lavrov about the change of nuclear doctrine of the Russian Federation is nothing more than the next round of nuclear blackmail by the Russian Federation.
It is demonstrated that no other instruments of influence, both on Ukraine and west, except hostilities and nuclear blackmail in the Russian Federation are gone. " Recalling that at one time the Russians abandoned the Soviet principle not to use nuclear weapons first, the expert added: "This principle was one of the elements of nuclear restraint and nuclear security in the world.
The Russian Federation at one time changed everything, but let Further, there was, among other things Engels "aircraft of strategic aviation of the Russian Federation. That is, there were no reasons, but there was no action. It indicates that the doctrine can be written anything, but the question is whether the country will apply nuclear weapons or not. I have, for example , there are great doubts that Russia will do it.
" One of the explanations of why the Russian Federation will not succeed in the use of nuclear weapons, Alexander Leonov considers the existence of a consensus on this occasion between the West on the one hand and the global south in the face of India and China, on the other. According to the political scientist, Beijing and New Delhi were extremely rigid before the Russian Federation red lines to failure to not use nuclear weapons to which Russia is "simply forced to consider".
Actually, therefore, the expert is convinced, the "nuclear" statements of Russian officials are an effort at least to influence the West. In addition, the expert suggests that Ryabkov's statements are a certain Trump pass that criticizes Biden for saying that his policy can lead to the Third World War.
In fact, one of the reasons why the US does not grant Ukraine permission to beat deep into the Russian territory, according to the expert, is that Trump has made this topic an element of his election campaign and he does not want to play in the White House.
