Dmitry Kiselyov, Vladimir Putin’s main propagandist, used his show on Sunday night to suggest that an attack on the UK using a Poseidon submarine drone could be a possible course of action for Russia. Kiselyov said the weapon would trigger a radioactive tidal wave and plunge Britain “into the depths of the ocean.” He added: “This tidal wave is also a carrier of extremely high doses of radiation. Passing over Britain, it will turn what is left of them into a radioactive desert, unused for nothing. What do you think of this perspective? “ Kiselyov also threatened the United Kingdom with another weapon, the Sarmat 2, which Russia said earlier this month it planned to deploy by the fall. Intercontinental ballistic missiles – capable of carrying 10 or more nuclear warheads – will be able to target Europe and the United States, experts have warned. “Why are they threatening huge Russia with nuclear weapons, when it is only a small island? “The island is so small that one Sarmat rocket is enough to drown it once and for all,” Kiselyov said. “Russia’s Sarmat rocket, the most powerful in the world, is capable of destroying an area the size of Texas or England. “Just one launch, Boris, and there is no England anymore. Once and for all. Why are they playing games? ” Last week, US officials downplayed Russia’s threat to use nuclear weapons despite a recent escalation of Moscow rhetoric. “We continue to monitor their nuclear capabilities every day as best we can and we do not consider that there is a threat of the use of nuclear weapons and no threat to NATO territory,” the official told reporters on condition of anonymity. . Just last week, Boris Johnson said he did not expect further failures by the Russian military in Ukraine to push Putin to use nuclear weapons regularly, saying the Russian leader had room to maneuver and end the conflict. Earlier this month, CIA Director William Burns said Russia’s threat to use regular or low-cost nuclear weapons in Ukraine could not be taken seriously, but that the CIA had not seen much practical evidence to support it. this concern.
