Russian officials continue to send the message that the coming changes in Russia’s nuclear weapons doctrine are being forced by the destructive actions of the collective West against Russia. Russia is reviewing its approaches “against the backdrop of challenges and threats, prompted by countries of the so-called collective West,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters this morning, reported TASS. “This nuclear doctrine update is necessitated by the current agenda and the state of affairs that apparently emerged as a result of the West’s actions.”
