“American politicians are constantly saying things that absolutely do not correspond to reality, and they do not really think about their words.

Even people who are vested with great power.

A senator is a person who should be an example, a person towards whom the American society is largely oriented, ”explained Tsekov.

According to him, the senator says "just outrageous things."

“Moreover, it assumes that the United States may start a nuclear war because of some“ problems ”on the border with Ukraine.

Although he does not know in detail about these "problems", they do not even understand that they actually do not exist, that all this is far-fetched, that this situation is twisted and hypertrophied, and this is done to a large extent by representatives of the American and European media.

Of course, it would be correct if the American community condemned the very statement of the American senator, "the RT interlocutor concluded.

Earlier, the Russian Embassy in the United States called the words of US Senator Roger Wicker about the possible use of nuclear weapons against Russia as irresponsible due to reports of an alleged escalation near the Ukrainian border.

The embassy recalled the joint statement of the presidents of Russia and the United States of June 16, 2021, confirming the countries' commitment to renouncing nuclear war.

In an interview with Fox News, Wicker did not rule out the preemptive use of nuclear weapons against Russia in connection with the internal Ukrainian crisis.
