Medvedev: It will be end of mankind, but it is a mistake to talk about impossibility of a nuclear war

No one wants a nuclear war, and everything must be done so that the nuclear collapse never happens on Earth, but talking about its impossibility is a mistake, said Dmitry Medvedev deputy chairman Dmitry Medvedev.

“You understand when they say that this is impossible, because it is never possible – they are always mistaken. Moreover, nuclear weapons have already been used in the history of mankind,” he said in an interview with Al Jazeera.

The most important thing, according to Medvedev, “so that the decisions that are made by countries are made on the cold head, taking into account all the realities.”

He recalled that in accordance with its doctrine, Russia responds to a nuclear blow if it has been subjected to such an attack, or if its critical infrastructure is attacked, or if the Russian Federation has been impacted by conventional weapons, but this blow is such that it is such that it is such that He threatens the existence of the state itself.

“Nobody should forget about this either. Naturally, that no one wants a nuclear war. This is a dead end, this is the end of humanity, and we all must do everything so that the nuclear collapse never happens on Earth,” Medvedeva RIA Novosti.
