Peskov statement on the Ukrainian question
When Peskov was asked about US President Joe Biden’s decision to supply Ukraine with long-range missiles to strike targets in Russia, Peskov warned that this could further escalate the conflict and lead to war.
On the other hand, Dmitry Medvedev, vice-president of the Security Council of the Russian Federation and former President of Russia, stated: ‘Russia’s new nuclear doctrine means that NATO missiles fired at our country will be considered an attack against Russia. Russia can retaliate with WMD (nuclear weapons) against kyiv and key NATO targets, wherever they are located. This means a third world war.
