Biden administration officials have warned Kremlin leaders that there will be"catastrophic consequences" if they use a nuclear weapon in Ukraine but have not detailed publicly what that response could include.
They have communicated “directly” and “privately” to the Russians about the possibility and warned them that “the United States will respond decisively, alongside our allies and partners,” national security adviser Jake Sullivan said on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos on Sunday.
"I would like to remind those who make such statements regarding Russia that our country has different types of weapons as well, and some of them are more modern than the weapons NATO countries have," the Russian leader warned."In the event of a threat to the territorial integrity of our country and to defend Russia and our people, we will certainly make use of all weapon systems available to us. This is not a bluff.
