He wrote about this on Telegram:

“Right now, all talks about a nuclear threat in the Western media benefit only Russia. Nuclear scare tactics are part of fear propaganda that they have always used to frighten Western societies and achieve their goals without war,” the post says.

According to Kovalenko, publications about a Russian nuclear strike work solely to spread fear among the public.

“We must always remember that even the theoretical desire to use a nuclear strike will harm Russia much more because the whole world is against the use of nuclear weapons today, and Russia relies solely on energy resources that it still manages to sell,” he added.

  • After visiting Kyiv, Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said that threats to nuclear safety remain very real and constant.
