Russian President Vladimir Putin has approved an update to its nuclear doctrine, warning of a potential nuclear response to conventional missile attacks backed by a nuclear power. This follows the approval of US allowing Ukraine to use its long-range missiles into Russia.
Russian President Vladimir Putin approved an updated nuclear doctrine on Tuesday, warning that Russia could consider using nuclear weapons if subjected to a conventional missile attack backed by a nuclear power. This move is in response to US President Joe Biden's approval of Ukraine to use its long-range missiles into Russia.
The revised doctrine outlines scenarios that could prompt a nuclear response, including attacks with conventional missiles, drones, or aircraft. It also states that any aggression against Russia by a coalition member would be viewed as an attack by the entire coalition.
The doctrine’s changes emphasise that any conventional attack on Russia supported by a nuclear power could be seen as a joint assault.
