Calls grow for NATO to intercept Putin’s missiles despite the Kremlin’s warnings – London Business News | London Wallet

There has been growing calls for President Joe Biden to allow NATO to intercept Russian missiles.

The Kremlin has issued a serious warning to NATO they will launch nuclear weapons on the West if they interfere any further in the Ukraine war.

The deputy chairman of the Security Council of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev who is also the former President warned Moscow will not hesitate to use nuclear weapons on Europe and the US.

During an interview with the Russian state broadcaster RT Medvedev said for some reason the West think “that the Russians will never cross a certain line.”

He said, “They are mistaken. If it comes to the existence of our state, which the president of our country has repeatedly said, your humble servant has said, others have said, naturally, we simply will not have any choice.

“Every person who assumes the post of president of a nuclear country, he, in essence, takes on this obligation – to defend the country to the last. This also applies to the Russian Federation.”

Putin’s side kick added, “The current political establishment – both in the US and in Europe – lacks the insight and subtlety of mind that, for example, the same [Henry] Kissinger had.”

His comments come as Republican Joe Wilson and the Democrat Steve Cohen, co-chairs of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe wrote in a joint letter to President Biden.

The letter reads, “Despite Russia’s continued escalation through hybrid warfare — airspace violations, attacks on critical infrastructure, and efforts to destabilise democratic institutions — we have hesitated to confront these threats decisively, allowing Russia to wage a war against the alliance with minimal consequences.

“In this context, Poland’s request to intercept and neutralise missiles over Ukraine is both necessary and urgent as a support mechanism for Ukraine and a safeguard to the frontline of NATO’s borders.”
