Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday that his country could adopt the doctrine of preemptive nuclear strikes while boasting that Russia\u2019s cruise missile capabilities surpass those of the U.S.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a summit of former Soviet nations in Kyrgyzstan, the Russian dictator referred to what he called America\u2019s preemptive nuclear strike doctrine, saying that Russia is \u201cthinking about\u201d implementing something similar. Currently, Russian military doctrine states that Moscow can use a nuclear strike if the country comes under nuclear attack or the existence of the country is threatened.<\/p>\n
\u201cSpeaking about a disarming strike, maybe it\u2019s worth thinking about adopting the ideas developed by our U.S. counterparts, their ideas of ensuring their security,\u201d Putin remarked with a smile, according to the Associated Press.<\/p>\n
In October, the Pentagon rejected any limits on using nuclear weapons in its new National Defense Strategy, Bloomberg reported. Officials mentioned international threats from Russia and China as the reason for the refusal.<\/p>\n
\u201c[B]y the 2030s the United States will, for the first time in its history face two major nuclear powers as strategic competitors and potential adversaries,\u201d the Pentagon said, adding that the U.S. will \u201cmaintain a very high bar for nuclear employment.\u201d<\/p>\n
