Erdogan: Russia and the United States agreed to refrain from using nuclear weapons

“At the moment, both sides will not make any attempts to use nuclear weapons,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

Deputy head of the press service of the State Department Vedant Patel previously confirmed that the head of the CIA, William Burns, met with the director of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, Sergei Naryshkin, on nuclear risks.

John Kirby, strategic communications coordinator at the US National Security Council, said the meeting was aimed at maintaining a dialogue on security issues between both countries in the future.
