Peskov: Russia reminds Europe about the possibility of using nuclear weapons // Peskov called the statements of Europe on the blockade of Kaliningrad rabid

Russian diplomats in response to statements about Kaliningrad remind European officials that Moscow has nuclear weapons, said Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov.

We have repeatedly heard quite rabid statements from Poland and other European countries, which also touched on the topic of Kaliningrad. Therefore, it is quite natural that our diplomats are trying to remind hotheads in Europe of our policy documents on this matter, Peskov said during a press call.

Former Deputy Foreign Minister of Lithuania Darius Jurgelievichus reported in January that NATO countries have a scenario of a blockade of the Kaliningrad region, which they are ready to implement in the event of a direct military clash with Russia. The Russian side has repeatedly stated that it does not plan to attack European countries, but in the event of a conflict, it is ready to use nuclear weapons.
