“We consider unfounded the insinuations of the West about the risks allegedly arising as a result of a special military operation for nuclear facilities on Ukrainian territory, as well as accusations of “rattling nuclear weapons,” the diplomatic mission said in a Telegram message.
It is noted that Russia is determined to cooperate for the constructive holding of a review conference on the operation of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), which will be held in New York in August.
The embassy expressed hope that the United States would have enough common sense to put the interests of preserving the NPT above opportunistic goals.
Earlier, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said that Russia denies the very ideology of using nuclear weapons.
