Kremlin Threatens Nuclear Tests: How Real Is the Threat: How Real Is the Threat

The Kremlin threatens nuclear tests: how real is the threat: how real is the threat Anzhelika Galesevich

Russian leader Vladimir Putin has once again started a wave of blackmail and threatens to conduct nuclear tests. He understands the following: if the ban on Storm Shadow missile strikes on Russian territory is lifted, the situation in the aggressor country will significantly worsen.

That is why the dictator is now actively pursuing the doctrine of nuclear blackmail, which consists of many stages. Which ones exactly and how real the threat is – political strategist Boris Tiesenhausen suggested on Channel 24.

Residents of which island in Russia should be concerned

According to Tiesenhausen, Russia's doctrine of nuclear blackmail consists of several stages:

• the transfer of nuclear charges to Belarus, for which Alexander Lukashenko could even prepare storage facilities;
• directly conducting nuclear exercises on Belarusian territory;
• talks about the transition to nuclear weapons testing, which significantly increases hostile rhetoric.

Interestingly, according to Vladimir Putin, if Storm Shadow missiles fly at Russia, NATO will automatically be perceived as a party to the conflict. Allegedly because the American navigation system will be involved, and the British will be engaged in programming.

Putin really can conduct nuclear tests <..> Given the experience of the Russians, everyone who lives near Novaya Zemlya Island should be very concerned. They have clumsy hands. They can do anything, – noted Boris Tiesenhausen.

Novaya Zemlya

An archipelago in the Arctic Ocean between the Barents and Kara Seas; part of the Arkhangelsk Region of Russia. It consists of two large islands – Severny and Yuzhny, separated by the narrow Matochkin Shar Strait, and many small ones.

However, the condition of the nuclear charges is unknown. They need to be sorted out every 10-15 years, and Russia has never done anything like this. The fact that the Russians declare thousands of nuclear warheads does not mean that they are all operational.

Even if Putin presses the “red button,” most of the missiles will not leave the silos at all. Nobody knows what will happen to Russia. He does not want to do this. He loves life and his little “kabayats” (Alina Kabaeva's children – 24 Kanal), about whom Putin has been talking more and more often lately, the political strategist noted.
