The Kremlin has stated that its new nuclear doctrine is drafted and ready to be officially adopted in what is being called a new 'red line.'

This comes several days after Putin warned that new rules were being drafted as a warning to the West’s support for Ukraine.Russia has officially announced that amendments to its nuclear doctrine have been prepared and are ready to be formalized. Announced on Sunday by official Kremlin sources, this new doctrine will set out under which scenarios Russia’s substantial nuclear weapon stockpile could be used against perceived aggression against Russia.

At present, Russian nuclear doctrine sets criteria such as enemy invasion or the destruction of around 20% of its strategic ballistic missile submarines as justifying the use of nuclear weapons. Other things like strikes on its coastal command centers in which nuclear weapon deployment could be used to blunt the aggression of attackers.

“We see the modern military and political situation is dynamically changing, and we must take this into consideration,” Putin said, citing “the emergence of new sources of military threats and risks for Russia and our allies.” Putin added that proposed changes “clearly set the conditions for Russia to transition to using nuclear weapons.” “We will consider such a possibility once we receive reliable information about a massive launch of air and space attack weapons and their crossing our state border,” he added.. Putin also stated that the proposed changes also meant, “We reserve the right to use nuclear weapons in case of aggression against Russia and Belarus,” which is a close ally of Moscow.
