What do russian statements about “NATO nuclear exercises” mean
ru-propaganda spreads manipulations about the alleged existence of a nuclear threat from NATO to create the illusion that their threats to the West to use nuclear weapons are not aggressive behavior but a response to danger.
◾️ In particular, the head of the fsb border service, vladimir kulishov, said that NATO is increasing its intelligence activity near the borders of russia and intensifying military exercises, during which “scenarios of combat operations against russia, including nuclear strikes, are being practiced.”
◾️ Propaganda promotes narratives about the “russophobic and hostile” West, which allegedly seeks to destroy russia. This is done to justify the kremlin’s actions.
In fact, it is russia that is a nuclear terrorist, and such statements are a continuation of the policy of blackmailing the West. After all, it was the russian troops who occupied the largest nuclear power plant in Europe – ZNPP, creating the threat of a large-scale catastrophe, and it was moscow that repeatedly made direct threats to use nuclear weapons.
