Kremlin plans changes to nuclear doctrine after US arms decision for Ukraine

The Kremlin announced on Tuesday that it has drafted changes to Russia's nuclear doctrine, responding to the U.S. decision allowing Ukraine to use American missiles against Russian targets. This marks a shift in Moscow's stance amid rising tensions. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that the changes will be formalized as needed. The Kremlin previously labeled the U.S. decision as reckless and warned of potential consequences. The U.S. decision follows Ukraine's requests for long-range weapons and comes amid concerns over North Korean troops supporting Russian forces. The situation has escalated tensions between Russia and the West, reminiscent of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
