Russian President Vladimir Putin<\/a> expressed concern that the threat of nuclear war is rising as his country continues its invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Putin, asked by a member of the Human Rights Council<\/a> to state unequivocally that Russia would not use a nuclear weapon except in retaliation, stated that such a promise could not be made \u2014 maintaining that a promise to never use the weapons first is a promise to simply never use them.<\/p>\n

“The threat of nuclear war is growing \u2014 no need to hide this sin,” the Russian president said. “If Russia does not use nuclear weapons first under any circumstances, then it will not be the second to use them either.”<\/p>\n

Russian doctrine maintains that the nation has a right to deploy nuclear weapons<\/a> in retaliation to hostile forces threatening its sovereignty.<\/p>\n

The world leader pushed back against accusations that he is becoming militarily reckless, insisting that Russia’s nuclear arsenal remains a purely defensive resource.<\/p>\n

“We haven\u2019t gone mad, we realize what nuclear weapons are,” Putin said Wednesday. “We have these means in more advanced and modern form than any other nuclear country, that\u2019s an obvious fact.”<\/p>\n

He added, “But we aren\u2019t about to run around the world brandishing this weapon like a razor.”<\/p>\n

“The question about nuclear weapons was almost certainly planted during this teleconference,” Rebekah Koffler, a Russia expert and former DIA intelligence officer for Russian Doctrine and Strategy, told Fox News Digital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She continued, “The goal was to give Putin an opportunity to threaten the West, using his typical intentional ambiguity. Putin\u2019s MO is to keep U.S. and Western politicians, analysts, and media on edge at all times by issuing veiled threats that Russia may use nuclear weapons.”<\/p>\n

Putin on Tuesday called a meeting with his security council to discuss the country’s domestic defenses after three airbases saw “explosions” this week<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Kremlin did not release details of the meeting but said that Russian officials looked to shore up the nation’s “internal security.”<\/p>\n

The meeting appeared to take place just hours after a third airbase was struck in the\u00a0Russian city of Kursk north of the Ukrainian border<\/u><\/a> and\u00a0one day after explosions were reported at two separate airbases hundreds of miles inside Russian territory.<\/p>\n
