In a televised Human Rights Council meeting on Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin provided a comprehensive public war update. The President further states that the risk of a nuclear war is rising, and insisted that Russia had not “gone mad”, instead it sees its own nuclear arsenal as a purely defensive measure.
Putin Points At U.S.
Putin added that the United States had placed the so-called “tactical” nuclear weapons in other nations, and not Russia — and that he would protect its territory and its allies “with all possible measures.”
This was a reference to the notion that several of the U.S.’s tactical nukes are hosted by NATO defense allies in Europe, including those that extend as far east as Turkey.

“Yes, we will do this by various ways and means. First of all, of course, we will focus on peaceful means, but if nothing else remains, we will defend ourselves with all the means at our disposal“, – sakė Putinas.
During the session, Putin was also found to state:
Our nuclear forces are in a more advanced state than any other country in the world.
Russia’s Ongoing Ukraine Tussle
Putin attempted to put an end to persistent rumors of a second military mobilization across society in 2023 during the ongoing session of the Žmogaus teisių taryba with other high-ranking officials. After the previous 300,000 reservists were called up for Ukraine operations, he stated that there was no need for any more to be called up.
He stressed the importance of the operation going through to its completion in order to achieve the aims that he had previously publicly stated: “Russia could be the only guarantor of Ukraine’s territorial integrity. But it’s up to the new leaders of Ukraine,” Putin remarked.
