Russia may change its nuclear doctrine because of the war in Ukraine

The Russian publication quoted the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia. According to him, the situation around “EsVeO” showed that “nuclear deterrence in its previous classical understanding does not work to its full extent” and “some conceptual additions and adjustments” are needed.

I fully admit that after some time there will be a certain specification of what approaches we can take to these extremely important and very responsible subjects in situations of further escalation on the part of our opponents, Ryabkov said.
