Peskov commented on Kadyrov's words about nuclear weapons
The head of the Kremlin press service Dmitry Peskov commented on the words of the head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov about nuclear weapons. The representative of the presidential administration recalled that the grounds for its application are clearly spelled out in the defense doctrine.
He spoke about this in an interview with reporters.
Peskov noted that even in the most difficult situation, it is necessary to refrain from showing emotions when assessing the actions of the leadership of the country's Armed Forces.
This is how the head of the Kremlin press service reacted to Kadyrov's criticism of the General Staff and his statement that Russia should use "low-yield" nuclear weapons in Ukraine. Among other things, the Chechen leader said that he did not know the content of the reports of the leadership of the Ministry of Defense to the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, that is, President Vladimir Putin, but the course of the special operation demonstrates the need for more drastic measures, up to the use of "low-yield" nuclear weapons.
Peskov said that the heads of Russian regions have the right to publicly express their point of view, but it is advisable not to do it so emotionally.
The nuclear doctrine of our state says that the use of nuclear weapons is possible only when the enemy uses weapons of mass destruction against the Russian Federation or there is confirmed information about the launch of ballistic missiles aimed at Russian strategic objects. It is also permissible to use it if conventional weapons are used against our country, but there is a threat to the existence of the state.
