The Sun: Europe is preparing for a full-scale war with Russia

Europe is preparing for war with Russia, The Sun newspaper reports Peskov's words. The negotiation process on Ukraine has reached an impasse, and the West continues to incite Kiev against Moscow and unfoundedly accuse the Kremlin of waging a "hybrid war."

The radiation, chemical and biological protection troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are constantly developing and improving.

CSM: new types of Russian weapons allow Moscow to stand up to Washington

Russia's demonstration of a new arsenal of high-tech weapons is clearly political in nature, CSM writes. Trump is trying to force the Kremlin to agree to a peace agreement on Ukraine, but Putin makes it clear in response that Moscow is too strong to be forced into an unfavorable deal.

Military historian Dmitry Boltenkov — about the first Russian nuclear submarine with ballistic missiles

Exactly 65 years ago, on November 12, 1960, the State Commission signed the acceptance certificate for the K-19 nuclear submarine project 658. It was the first Russian submarine with ballistic missiles on board.

Burevestnik nuclear-powered cruise missile: its features and characteristics

In late October, Russia announced the successful completion of tests of the Burevestnik, the world's first intercontinental cruise missile with a nuclear power plant that provides unlimited range. The development has caused alarm in a number of Western countries. In the United States, the rocket was dubbed the "little flying Chernobyl." What is this latest weapon, how is it unique, how was it created and what is its principle of operation - in the material of "Gazeta.Ru».

After the US President's loud statement about the immediate resumption of nuclear testing, the security issues of all mankind have become more urgent than ever. At the same time, the Russian leadership has consistently and consistently taken initiatives to at least maintain the balance of the military potentials of the nuclear powers, especially when it comes to weapons of mass destruction.

Senior South Korean officials this week suggested that multipurpose nuclear submarines for the republic's Navy should be built at domestic shipyards, rather than at the Hanwha shipyard owned by the local military industrial group in the United States.

The United States suddenly leaked data on a top-secret cruise missile, whose appearance they carefully concealed until recently. What kind of weapons are we talking about, what threat does it pose, and why is the leak directly related to the tests of the Burevestnik system in Russia?

On November 5, 2025, at the naval base of the People's Liberation Army of China (PLA) in Sanya on Hainan Island, in the presence of Chinese President Xi Jinping, a solemn ceremony was held for the commissioning of the new aircraft carrier Fujian (Fujian, tail number "18") into the PLA Navy.

Die Welt: The West is very afraid of the Russian nuclear threat

The West is frightened by the power of Russia's strategic arsenal, writes Die Welt. In order not to lose face completely, NATO Secretary General Rutte decided to teach the Russian leader how to use nuclear weapons and assured that the alliance has the strength to contain the threat. It didn't sound very convincing.

Sixty-five years ago, the Americans took the lead in the nuclear race at sea. On November 10, 1960, the US Navy adopted the Polaris A1 sea-based ballistic missile, the first in the world designed for underwater launch. Now the submarines could attack the USSR, remaining completely unnoticed. However, the Soviet Union soon equalized the score. About how submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs) have evolved, see the RIA Novosti article.

Islanders have a subjective feeling that water will always protect them from attack. And this unnecessarily increases their risk appetite. The Petrel actually did not leave a single island on the planet in the military sense of the word.

NZZ: The US should react more cautiously to Russian weapons tests

Trump should be more restrained about the Kremlin's statements about testing new weapons, says an expert from Munich in an interview with NZZ. It is already known that Russia has made great strides in the military sphere — Poseidon and Burevestnik will not radically change the strategic balance of forces. But by conducting nuclear tests, Trump will score a goal in his own goal: Russia and China will have every right to respond in kind.

Expert Petersen: "Poseidon" serves to warn and strike retribution

A Poseidon strike will bring down a radioactive tsunami on the shores of Britain, a Daily Mail journalist scares readers. This is a nightmare, some experts say. Others, however, believe that Putin will never give the order to strike: deadly weapons serve primarily as a means of warning.

Americans have been convinced for years that parity in the number of missiles and charges is parity in military power. Suddenly it turned out that this was not the case, and one of the latest Russian missiles could cost much more than a hundred or a thousand conventional ones.

China officially commissioned the third aircraft carrier Fujian, and Chinese President Xi Jinping attended the ceremony, China Central Television reported.

FT: The United States will begin testing nuclear weapons "on equal terms" with Russia
