Russia Plans Nuclear Doctrine Update

Changes to Russia’s nuclear policy have been developed and would be codified when needed, the Kremlin said on Tuesday, expressing Moscow’s alarm about the latest US decision on missile strikes from Ukraine.

“They (the reforms) are already basically formulated. They will be formalized as needed,” Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin’s press secretary, told the TASS state news agency in remarks published on Tuesday.

On Monday, the Kremlin condemned President Joe Biden’s administration’s reported decision to allow Ukraine to launch American missiles deep into Russia, warning that Russia would reply.

Russia, which began its full-fledged invasion of Ukraine 1,000 days ago, has repeatedly warned the West that it is playing with fire by testing the limits of what a nuclear power can or will not allow.

In September, President Vladimir Putin stated that Western approval of Kyiv’s use of long-range missiles would imply “the direct involvement of NATO countries, the United States, and European countries in the war in Ukraine” because NATO military infrastructure and personnel would be required to target and fire the missiles.

Biden’s decision came after months of pleading with President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to enable Ukraine’s military to utilize US weaponry to strike Russian military targets far from its borders.

The US decision was partly in response to Russia’s deployment of North Korean ground troops to supplement its own forces, which has alarmed Washington and Kyiv, according to Reuters sources.
