Dmitry Medvedev, deputy head of the Russian Security Council, once again threatened to use nuclear weapons, which he considers to be the “backbone by which the state is held together.” Speaking at the educational marathon “Knowledge. Firsts,” Medvedev
said
that Russia could be the first to use nuclear weapons if there were some type of aggression that threatened the existence of the state. He added that Moscow’s adversaries should not underestimate such risks. “Let’s face it, if you have any weapons in your hands, and I, as a former president, know what they are, you should be prepared, that in a certain situation, you won’t hesitate to use them, no matter how monstrous and cruel it may sound,” Medvedev said.
