The Kremlin is doing everything possible to destroy Ukraine, but in reality it is destroying the Russian Federation, which will eventually have to be stripped of its nuclear power status.

Oleksiy Danilov, head of the NSDC, stated this in an interview with "Ukrainian Pravda".

"I can say for sure that everyone is giving 100% in any direction to ensure the survival of our country. The enemy can do whatever they want, given that they have risked the destruction of their country. And it is not our decision, it they decided to destroy the Russian Federation. And they themselves are vigorously dealing with this issue," he said.

"We had only one question and request for them - detach from us, return to your territory. But that was once upon a time. Now they have to make all satisfactions, contributions, all reparations and so on. After that we can talk to them about something for the future. At the same time, I would like to emphasize that the Russian Federation must be free of nuclear weapons. We do not give people with mental illness, for example, sharp objects or matches. Such people are isolated from society. The Russian Federation must be isolated from civilized society because of nuclear weapons. They are very dangerous and have proven to be sick," he added.

What is known about the nuclear threat

Vladimir Putin said the day before that the Russian Federation could launch a pre-emptive

nuclear strike

to disarm the enemy.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi believes that Putin can use

nuclear weapons

if he so decides.

Military expert Oleg Zhdanov noted that the Russian dictator has again started 

threatening nuclear weapons,

because this is the only topic that can still embarrass the West.

However, according to the expert, Putin's nuclear rhetoric has changed, as he has stated that Russia will never be the first to use nuclear weapons, but only in response.

Mykhailo Samus, deputy director of the Center for Army, Conversion and Disarmament Research on International Affairs, believes that Putin could have used

 nuclear weapons 

against Ukraine on February 24, but he did not dare to do so.

Even if the Armed Forces begin to liberate Crimea, a nuclear strike is unlikely to happen.
