The Russian president warned of the threat of "tragedy" because of the calls of the event to cause strategic defeat to Moscow. He did not miss the opportunity to remind that Russia has the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons. The President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin said that the world allegedly came too close to the point of non -return and accused the event of the West.

He said this during his speech at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation in the framework of a meeting with the management of the department, reports "RIA Novosti". "The selfishness and arrogance of the Western powers has led to the current extremely dangerous state of affairs. We have come inadmissible to the point of non -return.

The calls for the strategic defeat of Russia, which possesses the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons, demonstrate extra -urism of Western politicians," Putin said. According to him, it was Washington who allegedly undermined strategic stability, unilaterally leaving the contracts. The Russian president believes that the United States was the first to destroy the system of trust and control measures.

"They either do not understand the extent of the threat they generate or simply obsessed with faith in their own impunity and in their own exclusivity. Both can turn into tragedy. Obviously, we are witnessing the collapse of the Euro -Atlantic security system. It is simply not. In fact, to create again, " - said the Kremlin leader.

Putin added that if Europe wants to preserve himself as one of the independent centers of world development and cultural and civilizational poles of the planet, she certainly needs to be in good relations with Russia. Moscow, he said, is allegedly ready for it. We will remind, on June 11, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Russia Sergey Ryabkov announced the revision of nuclear doctrine through the "escalation actions" of the United States and NATO.
