Russia Has No Intentions to Change Nuclear Stance - Envoy to NATO

NATO's criticism of Russia's alleged 'nuclear rhetoric' is nothing but an attempt to paint a threatening image of Russia as the country has no plans to make its nuclear stance more aggressive, Russia's envoy to NATO Alexander Grushko said Tuesday.

BRUSSELS (Sputnik) — Grushko said commenting on NATO recent claims over alleged changes in Russia's military planning leaning toward a more aggressive nuclear stance:

"It's just another example of a propaganda campaign, another 'thriller.'"

"I can assure you that nothing like that is taking place," Grushko told RIA Novosti.
