sends a strong signal, and Russia officially notifies the United States that the Russian army will hold a strategic nuclear force exercise soon. This will also be a collision with the time of NATO "First Noon" large-scale nuclear exercise. US Department of Defense spokesman Pat Ryder said: This is Russia's "annual routine exercise", and it can be seen that the United States does not want to stimulate Russia.
According to CCTV News, Ryder said at a briefing recently that he had received news that Russia will hold its annual military exercises, including the nuclear force exercise. Regarding Russia's statement, Ryder said that "Russia abides by its arms control obligations and remains open and transparent." At the same time, the United States will also pay close attention to Russia's "annual military exercise".
The focus is coming. Just recently, NATO has launched a large-scale exercise called "First Noon", and has also arranged a large-scale nuclear bomb exercise. It is worth noting that the exercise site is only about 1,000 kilometers away from Russia. Moreover, this joint military exercise gathered 14 member states and dispatched more than 60 aircraft to participate.
It can be said that NATO's joint military exercise is undoubtedly displayed to Russia, and the intention to put pressure on Russia is very obvious.
However, interestingly, in the face of NATO's joint military exercises, Russia did not disappoint them, and immediately announced that it would hold an annual military exercise, and at the same time, it would add nuclear weapon to the exercise plan. Judging from the time of the military exercises between the two sides, the end time of the military exercises organized by NATO is October 30. Then this Russian military exercise is very likely to form a seamless connection with the end time of NATO joint military exercises.
Of course, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is in an extremely sensitive period, and the outside world speculates that Russia will launch a larger-scale attack on Ukraine in the future. At this time, in the face of NATO pressure, Russia responded with practical actions and also clearly notified the US government.
It seems that Russia is still rational and restrained in such a severe situation, and tries to avoid a head-on confrontation with the NATO organization " nuclear weapons ".
This time Russia and NATO conducted nuclear weapons exercises one after another, which actually reminded us of the " Cuban missile crisis " that occurred during the Cold War. Russia and the United States almost triggered a nuclear war without timely communication. This NATO joint military exercise is closer to Russia than the "Cuban missile crisis".
And this is the main reason why Ryder agreed with Russia's behavior after Russia notified the United States that it would hold a "nuclear exercise".
But now, the topic of "nuclear weapons" is being debated endlessly. Just recently, Russia said that it had collected Ukraine and would use " dirty bomb " and blame Russia, and also issued a warning to Western countries . However, Western countries disagree with Russia's statement, and even speculated that it was a smokescreen deliberately released by the other party.
However, with the increasing tension in the situation in Russia and Ukraine, it is not ruled out that there will be "fault fire". If it does happen, it is not impossible to have a "nuclear crisis". By then, even the United States, which is far away on the other side of the Pacific, will definitely not be much better.
Finally, I hope that no matter how the situation in Russia and Ukraine develops, all parties can maintain restraint and try to resolve conflicts through negotiations and dialogues.
