Changing Russia’s nuclear doctrine and turmoil in the Western camp
Mehr News Agency- International Group: Russian President Vladimir Putin’s new order to change his country’s nuclear doctrine, action It is important that the deterrence power and defensive principles are updated has entered a new phase.
Following the adoption of new decisions by Russia, the United States closed its embassy in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, and asked its employees to take shelter in a suitable place. take For this reason, political analysts say that we have reached a point that can be considered one of the highest points of tension between Russia and the West in the last fifty years. This action of Moscow took place in the circumstances that in the last days of Joe Biden’s rule, America and its allies are looking for another battle and by provoking and arming Ukraine, they have put this tired and damaged country on the Black Sea in the most difficult possible situation.
For the first time, Biden has allowed Ukraine to use long-range missiles against Russia, and this is the same action that could lead to the risk of a major world war; Especially in the era when Russia, without flattery or appeasement, showed off its power by planning to change the nuclear doctrine. Now it can be clearly said that NATO, under the leadership of Biden’s failed team of advisers, has faced the world with new threats, and on the other hand, Russia has also shown that it not only has no intention of compromising or giving up in the face of the West’s actions; Rather, he can think about defense with more power than in the past.
Perhaps the day the Kremlin spokesman spoke about the possibility of changing Russia’s nuclear doctrine, the Western world did not believe that this decision of the Moscow authorities would be implemented very soon. Dmitry Peskov said: “In the eyes of Russia, nuclear weapons have always been considered as a deterrent tool, and we have sought to think about this weapon only in situations where it is a necessary last resort.”
What will change?
Russia’s previous nuclear doctrine was approved in 2020, and now after 4 years, Vladimir Putin felt the need to design a new nuclear doctrine and implement some reforms. New, to show that it has a special strategic attitude towards the missile actions of Ukraine and its western allies. In this document, for the first time, the term “potential enemy” and threat potential is used and it is declared that Moscow reserves the right to use this type of weapons.
If we want to point out the most important principle of Russia’s defense document, we should put our hands on this phrase: “Aggression against Russia and its allies will be punished and punished It is inevitable.” Although clearly; Russia’s specific meaning of the term “allies” is the country of Belarus, but the scope of this concept may be wider. Russia has announced that the use of long-range missiles by Ukraine is under continuous monitoring by the Russian defense and security institutions.
News and reports published in Sputnik and other Russian media indicate that the Kremlin, while announcing its new decisions to change the nuclear doctrine, has decided to use This sentence has special emphasis: “Russia’s policy in the field of nuclear deterrence is defensive in nature.” In addition to maintaining the security and territorial integrity of Russia, the defense of the allies is also emphasized and two important goals are stated as the vital pillars of this document:
1. Nuclear deterrence in military conflicts
2. The cessation of military actions depends only on ensuring that the terms of the post-war agreement are acceptable to Russia and guarantee the national interests of this country.
Russia’s insistence on “acceptable terms” seems to mean that Moscow will never be bound by an agreement that returns Ukraine to pre-war conditions. to restore and guarantee the membership of this country in NATO.
What are America’s other allies saying?
One of the important points about the recent events is that US President Joe Biden authorized the use of long-range missiles to Zelensky at the exact time when he Defeat of the candidate supported by his party has gained confidence! To put it more clearly, if Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party had won the last election, Biden would still prefer to walk on crutches. But now that he and his deputy have failed and they want to leave a legacy of heavier failures for Donald Trump. This is while issuing a license to use American Atcoms long-range missiles creates greater tensions that can cause not only the United States but all the members of the NATO group to face new problems. .
C TV channel reports. it. And the Daily Mail newspaper has shown that after America, England has also thought of provoking Ukraine as much as possible. A range of less than 155 miles, it is known as a new generation anti-jamming bomb known as A strategic and expensive weapon will be used only in special circumstances. If permission to use it is also issued, the conditions ahead will become more difficult and complicated; Especially if it becomes possible to use American mines to counter Russia’s advance in eastern Ukraine. This action may, on the one hand, encourage German Chancellor Olaf Schultz to put the permission to use “Taurus” missiles on Zelensky’s table, and on the other hand, force Russia to respond and react in the field. British Prime Minister Kerr Starmer said at the meeting of the Group of 20 in Rio de Janeiro: “It should not be allowed Let Putin win this war.” But it is clear that Starmer’s words have not received much support.
An excuse called North Korea
One of the excuses of the US and its western allies for licensing the Ukrainian army to use long-range missiles and deep attack Russian territory is a military cooperation between the military under the command of Putin and North Korea. The West believes that it should react to this action of Russia as soon as possible. All this while Ukraine, during the recent war, received help from all NATO members, and the increase in military cooperation between Russia and North Korea is not something that is far from expected.
Evidence suggests that taking an immediate stand against North Korea is just a pretext as Biden’s advisers , they remember well that Donald Trump, before and during his first term in office, considered it necessary to interact and compromise with North Korea, even if it was a show, and now it is possible that with his return to the White House, there will be grounds for renewed dialogue. with Pyongyang and Further weakening of NATO should be provided.
According to Russian government officials, the decisions of the United States and other NATO members to deploy nuclear weapons on the territory of non-nuclear countries, It is a military threat. Russia has declared that nuclear deterrence as the country’s most important defense doctrine is continuously prioritized in peacetime, in times of threat of aggression and in times of war, with the participation of deterrent military agents including land, sea and air forces. It remains to be seen what the new American government will do in the face of the crisis created by Joe Biden and NATO.
