Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented to reporters this Monday on the statements of Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, one of Putin’s allies. In the statements cited British Guardian newspaper, Peskov tried to boil some water.
Kadyrov recently said that Moscow should consider using a small nuclear weapon in Ukraine. “In my opinion, more drastic measures should be taken, including the declaration of martial law in the border areas and the use of small nuclear weapons,” Kadyrov said in a telegram. The reports came after Russia confirmed it had lost the Lyman region to Ukrainian forces.
Asked by journalists about Kadyrov’s statements and such “very tough solutions”, Peskov says he is Putin’s ally.You have the right to express your opinion”. But he called for a more measured and balanced approach.
“It was a very emotional moment. The leaders of the region have the right to express their opinion. But even in the most difficult moments, emotions should be kept out of any analysis. That’s why we want to stay Balanced and objective assessments”, said Peskov, quoted by the Guardian.
A Kremlin spokesman recalled that the basis for the use of any nuclear weapon is defined by Russia’s nuclear doctrine – which permits the use of nuclear weapons or weapons of mass destruction against Russia or if the Russian state faces an existential threat.
