Putin revises Russia's nuclear policy to allow broader atomic weapon use

President Vladimir Putin has revised Russia's nuclear doctrine, allowing for a broader use of atomic weapons. Under the new policy, Russia may respond with nuclear force if a non-nuclear state, supported by a nuclear power, threatens its sovereignty. This change marks a significant shift in Russia's nuclear strategy, potentially increasing the risk of nuclear escalation in conflicts. The updated doctrine raises concerns about how it may affect ongoing tensions, particularly in Ukraine. The West is likely to assess this development carefully, considering its implications for global security and military strategies. The response from NATO and other nations remains to be seen.
