Russia has not tested its nuclear weapons, so there is some doubt about its "expiry date".

Military expert Serhiy Grabskyi told about this live on the FREEDOM TV channel.

"Even based on what these nuclear warheads are filled with, whether it's weapons-grade plutonium or weapons-grade uranium, they have a shelf life. And that shelf life is not very long. Then these weapons need to be tested, prepared, but no one will tell you after the end guarantee cannot give 100% confidence that the weapon will work correctly and whether it will work at all," Grabsky said.

According to him, this is a very serious set of measures that requires conscious preparation and practical application.

"I emphasize that Russia has never conducted nuclear weapons tests in its history," the expert added.

Let's add that the Kremlin's nuclear threats have a negative impact on the stable situation on stock exchanges, in particular, on Chinese ones.

So, even such a Russia-friendly state as the PRC will deter Moscow from threatening to use strategic weapons.
