The new US nuclear posture allows a nuclear strike in response to a conventional attack. President Vladimir Putin said Russia, if attacked with nuclear weapons, would not hesitate to respond in kind.

The warning came during a state of the nation address delivered by the Russian president on Thursday, in which he presented a number of new advanced strategic weapon systems which, he said, would render all anti-missile capabilities that the US currently has powerless. Putin also mentioned the new American nuclear posture, which has relaxed some rules on when the US is prepared to use its nuclear weapons.

Yes, I have watched that.

Russia's military power was built to maintain peace in the world, he argued.

Putin reveals new Russian missile that can 'reach any point in the world'

  • Russian President Vladimir Putin revealed a slew of new defense systems Thursday, including a new prototype missile that "can reach any point in the world" and a supersonic weapon which cannot be tracked by anti-missile systems.
  • Delivering his annual State of the Union address, Putin announced increased capabilities in defense.
  • Putin also said that, if attacked, Russia was ready to use nuclear weapons.
  • Putin joked that the two new strategic nuclear weapons he described — the global cruise missile and the subsurface unmanned vehicle — did not have names yet and lawmakers could submit their suggestions via the Defense Ministry website.

Trusting in the gods of war. Threatening the world to obey. Building up trust in the UN. Traits of KoN

I was also trying to quote Saffron's statement above:  Those weapons will play role in ensuring Peace in the world.

Let them put together whatever weapons they feel they need. When they go to wage war against the Lamb,  they will feel confident in what they have against an army of horses.

 

(Revelation 19:19) . . .And I saw the wild beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the one seated on the horse and against his army.

The one showing favor to the lowly is lending to Jehovah

Interesting counterpoint.

What Putin’s scary-sounding nuclear weapons announcement really means
Hint: You don’t need to worry that much.

Quote

 

Experts say the most impressive new weapon he revealed is a nuclear-powered cruise missile that can hit any point on Earth. (That’s big: conventional cruise missiles rarely travel more than 600 miles.) This kind of weapon moves so quickly and flies so low to the ground that it could evade US and European missile defense systems and hit intended targets with a nuclear weapon. Putin said this new technology renders American missile defense “useless,” but US officials still say it needs further testing and is not yet operational.

 

The Defense Department sees it differently. “We’re not surprised by [Putin’s] statements,” top Pentagon spokesperson Dana White told reporters on Thursday, “and the American people should rest assured that we are fully prepared.”

 

Putin framed the two-hour address as a show of Russian might and defiance against efforts by the West — particularly the United States and NATO — to push back on Moscow. “You have failed to contain Russia,” he said.

 

But the bellicose language comes at a peculiar time: Russia’s presidential elections are on March 18, just 17 days away. Putin is likely to win a fourth term due to a rigged vote, meaning he could rule Russia until at least 2024. Ahead of the planned victory, he wants to prove to the Russian people he remains fit to lead after nearly 20 years in power, experts say.

 

“For Putin, it’s all domestic,” says Alina Polyakova, a Russia expert at the Brookings Institution, a think tank in Washington, DC. “The regime needs to constantly maintain its fear-mongering that the US and NATO are out to get Russia and that Putin personally can protect the Russian people.”

 

So while the new weapons are scary, they’re mostly meant as a signal to Putin’s domestic audience and foes abroad that Russia is strong — and cannot be ignored in the Putin era.
