Russia has begun nuclear war games and moved Iskander-M missiles into Belarus onto the door step of the European Union. Ukraine has rushed troops to its northern border and Nato has condemned the threatening moves.
Previous nuclear threats from Russia of this kind during its war against Ukraine have been met with more personal warnings from allied intelligence services.
According to European sources, Russians generals and other senior officers likely to have been involved in any nuclear operations were contacted individually and told in “graphic and aggressive terms” how they “would not survive” any attempt to use nuclear weapons. Is Russia preparing a nuclear confrontation with Europe?
