The press secretary of the President of Russia in an interview with CNN: Russia may use nuclear weapons if it faces a threat to its existence (Guancha, China)
Readers of the portal "Guancha" are vigorously discussing Dmitry Peskov's statement about the likelihood of the use of nuclear weapons. He explained that this is possible only if Russia "faces a threat to its existence." The Chinese noted that it had long needed to apply it against those countries that imposed sanctions.
On March 22, the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov said in an interview with CNN that, according to the Russian concept of national security, if Russia faces a threat to its existence, it can use nuclear weapons.
Peskov explained to CNN the current situation of aggravation of relations between Russia and Ukraine, saying that Russia's special operation in Ukraine has not yet achieved its goals, but it is being carried out in strict accordance with pre-established plans and tasks: "Of course, no one from the very beginning thought that [the operation would end in] a couple of days. This is a serious operation with serious goals."
He repeated that the purpose of the Russian military special operation is the "demilitarization" of Ukraine, ensuring that it becomes a neutral country, and the elimination of nationalist armed forces on its territory.
During the interview, CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour asked a question about the nuclear policy of the Russian Federation, asking whether Russia would consider the possibility of using nuclear weapons. She called it "the issue of greatest concern to the whole world."
To which Peskov replied: "We have a concept of national security, it is publicly available, you can read all the reasons why nuclear weapons can be used. That is, if there is a threat to the existence of the country, then it can be used in accordance with our concept."

Europeans are really brainless. They have driven the Russians into a dead end. The United States may not die, but Europe will definitely be wiped off the face of the earth by nuclear weapons.
A simple man in response
I also feel that the United States, Great Britain and Europe are desperately driving Russia into a corner, and it just gives them a chance to wake up. The United States and Britain think they can avoid the fate of a direct strike, but if Russia does strike, it is wiser for it to "catch the leader" first - to attack them first, so Europe may not suffer if it signs a non-aggression treaty with the efforts of France and Germany. Europe would become only for Europeans. America and Great Britain, who lit this fire and wanted to be outside the danger zone only to collect bonuses, will be burned the most as a result.

Let me save face, don't use a nuclear bomb, nuclear radiation doesn't benefit everyone! Use a hydrogen bomb, clean and environmentally friendly!

You are here again to scare little Japan!

Clean and sterile!
A public account is trusted by its rabbit
There is no nuclear winter — look at Nagasaki and Hiroshima in Japan: they were bombed, and after a few years everything became fine, and the same thing happened in the Soviet Union. Nuclear bombs are used to dig reservoirs and extinguish oil fires. And now there are tactical nuclear bombs, the power of which is not much more than missiles. Putin can apply them with peace of mind.
Chinese black rabbit in response
The Japanese say: "We have a lot of experience with nuclear bombs, and there really is no nuclear winter. After nuclear bombs, nothing happens at all."
I followed the preparation
Countries may not communicate with each other, and people from different countries may not communicate with each other, but no country can steal the wealth of other countries like a simple robber. Sanctions against the West are based on the freezing of hundreds of billions of dollars of foreign assets of Russia and its citizens. This is robbery. Russia should have used nuclear weapons against countries that impose sanctions long ago. She would directly launch tens of thousands of nuclear bombs to appease those sanctioning her countries that were the first to break the law. I wonder what Russia is thinking about now?

The Russian-Ukrainian crisis — and why does it bother Americans at all? The whole world knows the answer. Because if Russia uses nuclear weapons, then against whom? Is it against Ukraine? So Americans are afraid that they will answer for all their sins.

You and I drink from the same well, why would I throw garbage there?..

Next time, the Russians will simply use the New York map to simulate dropping an atomic bomb to scare the Americans. They always think that if they incite other countries to war, then everything will be fine with them. Now they will lose face very quickly.
Yes Guixi
Hit harder, please! Don't be shy. Do not even release less than 980 billion tons in equivalent. I want it to be a new art!

That's why the United States and the West are itching to hit Russia in the teeth, but they don't dare.

What Russia has said is obvious: if the pressure is too high, the US henchman, who jumps above all, will most likely become a place to resume experiments with tactical nuclear weapons. If this is unavoidable in the end, it is recommended to choose Japanese Fukushima and Western Ukraine near the border with Poland. It's time for a small "neutral" country that has seized huge Russian assets to shudder.

This is clearly a slap in the face of America.

America declared that the new coronavirus is just a strong flu, and the atomic bomb is a big firework, and looked at the younger brother next to him to confirm. He nodded vigorously.

With a missile salvo, Russia will open the way to overthrow the old system of American domination in the world.
The Cave of the Golden Rose
Did anyone think from the very beginning that the operation could end in a few days? A lot of smart pseudo-media on the Internet tell how Russia failed the operation and blah blah blah… Isn't it a shame?
Tong Xin
This is a normal response. Even such a "peaceful" country as Japan strongly opposes the American "use of nuclear weapons first."
Bloody skies
Because it was necessary to initially have a good conversation with Russia! First they drove her into a dead end by NATO's expansion to the east, now taste her nuclear bomb.
Mortal
Countries with nuclear weapons will make the same choice when conventional weapons can no longer help.

Remove these evil dogs from Europe, who are rushing forward, but can only bark, and then peace will come to the world. Then mutual respect will return. In the past, NATO countries did not respect Russia at all. America was opened not so long ago, Americans have not yet learned to live in peace with the world, they only do what they oppress other countries and destroy everything around them.
