He went on to emphasize that “anyone in Slovakia who wants to continue the war and welcomes the senseless military actions of the West is hurting the national-state interests of Slovakia.”

A few hours ago, “Bloomberg” magazine, citing the “RBC” news agency of Ukraine, claimed that after the US green light, the Ukrainian army carried out its first attack with long-range missiles against a border area inside the territory of Russia. .
The New York Times reported earlier, quoting informed sources, that US President Joe Biden has authorized Kiev to use long-range weapons and Atcoms missiles against Russian territory, a matter that Moscow has described the escalation of tension.
Simultaneously with Washington’s decision to authorize Ukraine to use American long-range missiles to strike deep into Russian territory, President Vladimir Putin approved and signed an updated version of Moscow’s nuclear doctrine.
According to this doctrine, if Russia is targeted by a missile attack with conventional weapons backed by a nuclear power, then Moscow can resort to nuclear weapons. The decision to change Russia’s official nuclear doctrine is the Kremlin’s response to the recent New York Times report on US President Joe Biden’s green light for Ukraine to use US long-range weapons deep in Russian territory.
In this updated doctrine, in which the threats leading to the possible use of nuclear weapons by Russia are described, an attack on this country with conventional missiles, drones or other aircraft is considered among the criteria for Moscow to resort to nuclear weapons.
Also, this document states that an attack on Russia by a country that is a member of a coalition means aggression against Russia by the entire coalition.
Putin ordered changes in Russia’s nuclear doctrine a few weeks before the 2024 US presidential election. The war in Ukraine, which has been going on for more than two and a half years, is considered the most intense confrontation between Russia and the West since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.
