My Way News - Russia: Could Use Nuclear Weapons

AP reports: "Russia's military chief of staff said Saturday that Moscow could use nuclear weapons in preventive strikes to protect itself and its allies, the latest aggressive remarks from increasingly assertive Russian authorities. [...] Moscow-based military analyst Pavel Felgenhauer said Russia plays up its nuclear deterrent because of its weakness in terms of conventional arms. 'We threaten the West that in any kind of serious conflict, we'll go nuclear almost immediately,' he said."
