According to the German News Agency today, Wednesday, the US Department of Defense (Pentagon) reiterated that “there will be consequences” if Russia has deployed nuclear weapons or used a nuclear-tainted bomb.
This occurs at the same time that the Russian ambassador to Washington said that two Ukrainian organisations were given the responsibility of creating the dirty bomb, suggesting that the dirty bomb intends to accuse Russia of utilising WMDs.
“The West is participating in nuclear terrorism with Ukraine,” he continued.
Whether it is utilised as a dirty bomb or a nuclear weapon, there will be consequences for Russia, according to Pentagon spokesperson Pat Ryder.
Ryder stated that although he won’t go into detail about the results, “the ramifications of a number of levels with Russia have been engaged.”
”
The Pentagon spokesperson called Russian claims that Ukraine was being prepared as a “dirty bomb” lies, and Rider said that the US is “constantly monitoring” the situation.
He stated: “I won’t get into the how, when, or where in great detail. But it should go without saying that we take it seriously and continue to keep an eye on it during the entire week.
In unusual communication last week amid rising tensions since the beginning of the Russian military action in Ukraine on February 24, the US and Russian defence ministers met twice.
The United States announced, on Tuesday, that Russia had informed it of routine nuclear training, in a move that would reduce the risk of insulting the estimate in the midst of the increasing fears that Moscow can use nuclear weapons in Ukraine.
A statement by the US State Department said that Russia complied with the provisions of agreements stipulating that the United States should inform the continents and ballistic missiles fired from submarines.
Russia conducts this standard annual training, according to Ned Price, a spokesman for the foreign ministry.
“These notification methods include removing the surprise factor and decreasing the risk of discretion,” the statement reads. “While Russia is engaged in an unlawful attack and the launch of reckless nuclear threats.
The Pentagon responded by stating that Russia has informed the US of its preparations for nuclear force drills. Regarding the drills, which are anticipated to involve ballistic missile launch experiments, he withheld further information.
If Moscow used a dirty bomb, Washington threatened “consequences,” and finally said: “You are complicit!”
