MOSCOW: Russian President Vladimir Putin warned on Friday (December 9) that Moscow could adopt the US strategy of striking first in response to the threat of attack from the enemy and they have the wherewithal to do so. There are many weapons Referring to the US policy, President Putin said at the conference of the Financial Alliance of former Soviet countries in Kyrgyzstan that we are only thinking about it. While Russia's enemy countries are not shying away from talking openly about it in the last few years.

The Kremlin has for years raised concerns about US efforts to develop a so-called conventional prompt global strike capability, which could deliver a precision strike anywhere in the world with conventional weapons within an hour. He claimed that Russia has already deployed hypersonic weapons capable of carrying out such an attack, while the US is yet to deploy them. He also claimed that Russia now has such cruise missiles, which can determine the distance even further than America's cruise missiles.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the US has not ruled out the possibility of the first use of nuclear weapons. He has said that, if any country feels that it can adopt the policy of attacking under the cover of the threat of attack and we do not, then it is their fault. President Putin has further said that considering the strategy of other countries, we may be forced to conduct nuclear war first. This stand of Putin is opposite to the previous things. Earlier, Russia had been saying that it would not do a nuclear attack first.
