Synthetic COVID & Chimeric Strains: Why US Should Open All of Its Biolabs for Inspection

Recently, Russian Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin called for an independent investigation into the origins of COVID-19 under the auspices of the UN in a Telegram post, adding that the US runs a whopping 336 overseas bio-laboratories allegedly capable of creating such a virus.







"I strongly agree that an independent international investigation into the origins of the global COVID epidemic is absolutely essential," Ron Unz, a US technology entrepreneur, political activist, writer, and the publisher of The Unz Review, told Sputnik. "By reasonable estimates, over 18 million people have died worldwide, including more than a million Americans, and the people of my own country should be in the forefront in demanding answers about how it happened. Given current international conflicts, arranging such a non-partisan body might be difficult, but it should be attempted. I think that some very prominent Americans, such as Prof. Jeffrey Sachs and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. would be excellent choices as senior figures in such an international investigation."


Russian Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin created a poll on his Telegram account last week asking whether his followers were inclined to believe that Sars-CoV-2 was a man-made virus. Out of 352,400 respondents 94% said that the virus was artificially created, 2% did not agree, while 4% said they did not care.


"Scientists from different countries have found evidence of the laboratory origin of COVID-19," the Russian official wrote on October 29. "There are 336 biological laboratories in 30 countries capable of creating such a virus under the control of the Pentagon (…)The UN should conduct an independent investigation into Washington's involvement in the emergence of the coronavirus."



Synthetic Origin of SARS-CoV-2'







Volodin's post came on the heels of research by Valentin Bruttel, a scientist at the University Hospital of Würzburg, and his colleagues published on October 20, 2022. In a report titled "Endonuclease fingerprint indicates a synthetic origin of SARS-CoV-2," the scientists argued that the novel coronavirus is "an anomaly, more likely a product of synthetic genome assembly than natural evolution." The scientific paper has not yet gone through the process of peer review.


"I've read the Bruttel preprint and found their analysis very solidly formulated and quite persuasive," said Unz. "I've also discussed the paper with a couple of individuals having far more technical expertise than myself and they felt the same way. Obviously, the work still needs to undergo peer review and perhaps strong arguments on the other side will appear, but as of now, I believe it makes a very powerful case that the original COVID virus was bioengineered, reinforced by all the previous arguments pointing."


The issue of COVID's origin has been surrounded by controversies from the outset of the pandemic. Thus, the Trump administration pointed the finger at China, claiming the virus could have been created at the Wuhan bio-laboratory while presenting zero evidence to back the claim. Remarkably, having assumed the Oval Office, Joe Biden followed Trump's suit and joined the blame game. For its part, Chinese media and the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) questioned Washington's handling of the pandemic and its non-transparent biolab activities.


The US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) appeared to be the first to produce a classified report warning about an "out-of-control disease epidemic" in the Wuhan area of China in the second week of November 2019. However, the Pentagon rushed to deny that such a report ever existed. To add more to the controversy, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) held a joint exercise with national, state, and local organizations from January 2019 to August 2019 in order to test the capacity of the federal government to respond to a pandemic of influenza originating in China.






To cap it off, neither a COVID-19 "patient zero" nor a "guilty bat" has been found, which means it's unclear when and where exactly SARS-CoV-2 started to circulate among humans.


In May 2022, Professors Jeffrey D. Sachs and Neil L. Harrison published a report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (PNAS), a peer-reviewed multidisciplinary scientific journal, suggesting that the virus could be artificial and called for an independent inquiry into its possible American origins.



Boston Virologists' Reckless 'Gain-of-Function' Experiment



In July 2022, Professor Sachs told the Iranian media that "the US government was sponsoring a lot of dangerous genetic manipulation of SARS-like viruses and has not yet honestly revealed the nature of that work." Sachs suggested that SARS-CoV-2 could have emerged as a result of a biotech "blunder," ruling out the possibility that the virus was developed as a bioweapon.


Meanwhile, in mid-October 2022, a group of virologists at Boston University claimed that they had managed to create a chimeric SARS-CoV-2 virus with the spike protein of Omicron and the remaining viral structures from the original virus strain that inflicts severe disease and has an 80% kill rate.






The study triggered a wave of criticism in the US over "gain-of-function" research on SARS-CoV-2. Indeed, last year the National Institutes of Health (NIH) officially stated that it would not support gain-of-function research, following deep concerns voiced by US congressmen amid the debate on COVID's origins. The scientists tried to refute the criticism by saying that the study was conducted in mice only, and cannot be generalized to humans. That did not help, as concerns persisted.


"The bioengineering of a new and far more dangerous COVID strain by those Boston University researchers seemed extremely reckless and dangerous to me, and arguably should have already been prohibited under existing American law," said Unz. "Some people believe that the laboratory in question should be shut down and the researchers prosecuted for such a serious and dangerous violation (…) The deliberate production of such extremely deadly biological agents was originally prohibited by an international agreement supported by President Richard Nixon during the Cold War nearly fifty years ago, and the American government made a disastrous mistake in reversing that decision."


While the Boston virologists' experiment does not per se confirm that the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 was bioengineered, it appears to demonstrate that this could have been possible, according to the publisher.






"It does demonstrate the extreme recklessness of many of our civilian or academic virus researchers, and if they could so easily produce a much more dangerous version of COVID, we should probably assume that America's very heavily funded biowarfare labs are also doing the same sort of thing, but without publishing their results in academic journals," Unz suggested.


As new information concerning the potential origins of COVID continues to emerge, the issue of bio-research transparency has taken on a new significance, regardless of whether SARS-CoV-2 was natural or artificial.


"American political leaders have loudly demanded that China and other countries open their labs for public inspection. Such a policy seems reasonable, but since America has the world's largest and oldest biowarfare infrastructure, which has probably absorbed $100 billion or more of government funding over the decades, the first step is obviously for our own country to open all of its biolabs for international inspection," emphasized the political activist, adding that "the need for international controls and prohibitions becomes obvious."


Florida school mass shooter to be sentenced to life in prison

Florida school mass shooter to be sentenced to life in prison

A Florida judge was due to formally sentence Nikolas Cruz, the man who killed 17 students and staff with a semi-automatic rifle at a school in Parkland, to life in prison on Wednesday.







A jury voted last month to spare Cruz, 24, the death penalty, instead choosing life in prison without possibility of parole for one of the deadliest mass shootings in U.S. history.


Cruz pleaded guilty last year to premeditated murder, then faced the three-month penalty trial earlier this year.


Broward County Circuit Judge Elizabeth Scherer agreed to a prosecution request to first allow relatives of Cruz"s victims to address the court before the sentence was handed down. The sentencing proceedings began on Tuesday with victim impact statements.


A number of victims, relatives castigated the jury's decision and criticized a state law requirement that all 12 jurors be unanimous in order to sentence a convicted person to be executed.


"How much worse would the crime have to be to warrant the death penalty?" said Annika Dworet, the mother of 17-year-old victim Nicholas Dworet.






Some relatives also chided Cruz's defense lawyers, with Dworet saying she saw them "giggling with this cold-blooded murderer" during the trial. The defense lawyers fruitlessly objected to the judge on Tuesday, noting that Cruz had a constitutional right to legal representation.


Many victims, relatives directly addressed Cruz, who sat inscrutable behind large spectacles and a COVID-19 mask at a table alongside his public defenders. Anne Ramsay, the mother of 17-year-old Helena Ramsay, told him he was "pure evil;" Inez Hixon called him a "domestic terrorist" for killing her father-in-law, school athletics director Chris Hixon.


Cruz was 19 at the time of his attack on Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, about 30 miles (50 km) north of the courthouse in Fort Lauderdale. He had been expelled from the school.


Some of the survivors went on to organize a youth-led movement for tighter gun regulations in the United States, which has the highest rate of private gun ownership in the world and where mass shootings have become recurrent.

The West seeks to destroy Russia’s economy and military potential, making it impossible for the country to pursue an independent foreign policy, Russian defense chief Sergey Shoigu said at a joint board meeting of the Russian and Belarusian defense ministries on Wednesday.







He pointed out that the number of NATO forces in Eastern and Central Europe had risen by two and a half times since February and might increase further in the near future, which would put Russia’s allies, including Belarus, in danger. TASS has put together crucial statements made at the video conference meeting.



On West’s policy



"Russia undoubtedly is the main target of the collective West’s destructive activities, aimed at wiping out Russia’s economy and military potential and depriving it of the chance to pursue an independent foreign policy," Shoigu noted. He stressed that Western countries were encouraging Kiev to escalate the conflict by providing it with intelligence and sending military advisors and mercenaries to Ukraine. They "are pointedly ignoring" the Kiev regime’s nuclear blackmail, which includes shelling attacks on the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant, the Russian defense minister added.


He emphasized that NATO’s new strategic concept suggested moving from containing Russia "through forward presence" to creating "a full-scale system of collective defense on the eastern flank," with the bloc’s non-regional members deploying troops to the Baltic countries, Eastern and Central Europe, and new multinational battalion tactical groups being formed in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia.


According to Shoigu, the number of NATO forces on its "eastern flank" has risen by two and a half times since February, exceeding 30,000, and may "increase further in the near future." It "will also put our allies in danger, first and foremost, our brotherly country of Belarus," he noted.








On security of Union State



Given this situation, the Russian Defense Ministry considers prioritizing the military security of the Union State of Russia and Belarus. The defense ministries of Russia and Belarus regularly hold joint activities, continue to shape "a common defense space" and conduct joint planning, Shoigu noted.


His Belarusian counterpart Viktor Khrenin highly appreciated the outcome of cooperation in 2022. "Despite the current developments,... we were able to achieve important results," he said, adding that Minsk and Moscow had already begun preparations for the Union Shield 2023 operational exercise that had been announced before the launch of Russia’s special military operation.



On regional group of forces



Activities aimed at practicing combat coordination between military units meant to form a regional group of forces have been going on in Belarus since October 22, Shoigu pointed out.


Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko announced the deployment of the regional group of forces on October 10. Russian troops started to arrive in Belarus on October 15. According to the Belarusian Defense Ministry, about 9,000 Russian troops will be sent to the country along with some 170 tanks, as many as 200 armored vehicles and up to 100 guns and mortars.

Dolar AS tergelincir dari dekat puncak satu minggu terhadap mata uang utama lainnya di awal sesi Asia pada Rabu, dengan para pedagang gelisah menjelang keputusan suku bunga Federal Reserve yang juga akan memberikan petunjuk tentang jalur kebijakan masa depan.







Indeks dolar yang mengukur greenback terhadap sekeranjang enam mitra yang mencakup yen, euro dan sterling - turun 0,14 persen menjadi 111,33, tetapi masih tidak jauh di bawah tertinggi hari Selasa, 01/11/2022) di 111,78, yang merupakan level terkuat sejak 25 Oktober.


Indeks naik semalam, turun cepat di pembukaan Eropa hanya untuk memulihkan kerugian setelah data AS menunjukkan tekanan harga yang berkelanjutan, meredam spekulasi perubahan arah Fed tahun ini. Pembukaan pekerjaan AS secara tak terduga naik, menunjukkan pertumbuhan upah tetap tinggi, sementara belanja konstruksi rebound yang mengejutkan.


Investor secara luas memperkirakan The Fed akan menaikkan suku bunga acuan sebesar 75 basis poin (bps) pada Rabu, kenaikan keempat berturut-turut. Tetapi untuk pertemuan Desember, pasar berjangka terpecah pada kemungkinan kenaikan 75 atau 50 basis poin di tengah isyarat baru-baru ini dari pejabat Fed tentang potensi perlambatan dalam langkah pengetatan.


Investor secara luas memperkirakan The Fed akan menaikkan suku bunga acuan sebesar 75 basis poin (bps) pada Rabu, kenaikan keempat berturut-turut. Tetapi untuk pertemuan Desember, pasar berjangka terpecah pada kemungkinan kenaikan 75 atau 50 basis poin di tengah isyarat baru-baru ini dari pejabat Fed tentang potensi perlambatan dalam langkah pengetatan.







"Dalam pandangan The Fed, menempatkan AS ke dalam resesi masih merupakan kejahatan yang lebih kecil daripada tidak mengatasi tekanan harga-harga yang mengakar," Chris Weston, kepala penelitian di Pepperstone, menulis dalam catatan klien.


"Tampaknya sangat tidak mungkin bahwa Fed ingin mendorong reaksi positif dalam aset-aset berisiko, dan risiko terhadap pasar dalam pikiran saya condong ke reaksi hawkish - ekuitas naik, imbal hasil obligasi dan dolar lebih rendah."


Indeks dolar telah melonjak lebih dari 15 persen tahun ini karena The Fed telah menaikkan suku bunga dengan tajam, menghancurkan mata uang lain dan menumpuk tekanan pada ekonomi global.


Dolar Australia sedikit berubah pada 0,63945 dolar AS, berkonsolidasi di dekat level terendah satu minggu. Bank sentral Australia memilih untuk mempertahankan laju kenaikan suku bunga pada 25 basis poin pada hari Selasa, 01/11/2022, meskipun inflasi konsumen berjalan pada level tertinggi 32 tahun.







Dolar Selandia Baru naik 0,16 persen menjadi 0,58485 dolar AS, mengumpulkan dukungan setelah laporan pekerjaan yang optimis memperkuat kasus kenaikan suku bunga super besar bulan ini dari bank sentral Selandia Baru.



Yen Jepang Menguat



Sementara itu Yen berkinerja lebih baik, melihat ledakan kekuatan tiba-tiba pada pertengahan pagi waktu Jepang, dengan para pedagang waspada terhadap kemungkinan intervensi di sekitar pertemuan Fed.


Yen telah sangat rentan terhadap kekuatan dolar, mendorong Kementerian Keuangan dan bank sentral Jepang (BoJ) intervensi untuk mendukung mata uang pada September untuk pertama kalinya sejak tahun 1998.


Pihak berwenang Jepang secara luas diduga telah melakukan beberapa kali intervensi lagi pada Oktober untuk menarik yen kembali dari posisi terendah 32 tahun hanya sedikit di 152 per dolar, meskipun mereka menolak untuk mengkonfirmasi tindakan apapun.


Pada Rabu, mata uang Jepang melonjak tiba-tiba sekitar setengah yen menjadi 147,4 per dolar. Kemudian memperpanjang kenaikan tersebut, dengan dolar terakhir turun 0,55 persen pada 147,40 yen.







"Ini tidak terlihat seperti intervensi bagi saya," kata Ray Attrill, kepala strategi valas di National Australia Bank, dikutip dari Reuters.


"Pada tiga kesempatan yang kita ketahui, BoJ melakukan intervensi dalam ukuran besar dan berulang kali, dan jika kita melihat intervensi sekarang - kecuali polanya telah berubah - saya perkirakan kita akan melihat pergerakan yang jauh lebih signifikan yang akan berlanjut sekarang."


Euro naik 0,15 persen menjadi 0,9888 dolar, tetapi masih mendekati level terendah satu minggu sesi sebelumnya di 0,98535 dolar. Sterling naik 0,17 persen menjadi 1,1505 dolar, tetapi tetap tidak jauh dari level terendah satu minggu pada hari Selasa, 01/11/2022, di 1,14365 dolar.


Bank sentral Inggris (BoE) akan mengumumkan keputusan kebijakannya pada hari Kamis, 03/11/2022, dan pasar mengharapkan peningkatan 75 basis poin juga, diikuti oleh perlambatan ke kecepatan 50 basis poin pada Desember.








Rupiah akan sulit menguat karena pasar mengantisipasi hasil keputusan The Fed dini hari nanti



Nilai tukar (kurs) rupiah yang ditransaksikan antarbank di Jakarta pada Rabu pagi melemah seiring pelaku pasar yang masih mengantisipasi kebijakan moneter bank sentral Amerika Serikat (AS), Federal Reserve (Fed).


Rupiah pagi ini melemah 27 poin atau 0,18 persen ke posisi Rp15.655 per dolar AS dibandingkan posisi pada penutupan perdagangan sebelumnya Rp15.628 per dolar AS.


"Rupiah akan sulit menguat karena pasar mengantisipasi hasil keputusan The Fed dini hari nanti," kata Pengamat Pasar Uang Ariston Tjendra saat dihubungi di Jakarta, Rabu.


Pelaku pasar kini tengah menunggu pengumuman kebijakan moneter The Fed pada Kamis dini hari, 03/11/2022. The Fed diperkirakan akan kembali menaikkan suku bunga sebesar 75 basis poin menjadi 3,75 persen - 4 persen.







Kendati demikian sejumlah pejabat bank sentral mengungkapkan keinginan untuk mengendurkan laju kenaikan suku bunga sebab ada risiko perekonomian AS akan kembali mengalami resesi.


Menurut Ariston, pelaku pasar masih cenderung wait and see kebijakan moneter yang akan diambil The Fed.


"Karena ini mover penting untuk dolar - rupiah (USDIDR)," ujar Ariston.


Dari domestik, Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) mencatat deflasi sebesar 0,11 persen (month-to-month/mtm) pada Oktober 2022 atau adanya penurunan Indeks Harga Konsumen (IHK) dari 112,87 pada September menjadi 112,75.







Penyumbang deflasi pada Oktober utamanya berasal dari penurunan harga komoditas cabai merah, telur ayam ras, daging ayam ras, cabai rawit, minyak goreng, tomat dan bawang merah.


Dengan terjadinya deflasi pada Oktober, maka inflasi tahun kalender Oktober 2022 terhadap Desember 2021 sebesar 4,73 persen dan inflasi tahun ke tahun (yoy) Oktober 2022 terhadap Oktober 2021 sebesar 5,71 persen.


"Data inflasi ini kayaknya dikesampingkan dulu. Hasilnya memang bagus, tapi pasar mungkin perlu pembuktian lebih lanjut bahwa inflasi akan terkendali ke depannya," kata Ariston.


Ariston memperkirakan hari ini rupiah akan bergerak di kisaran level Rp15.640 per dolar AS hingga Rp15.680 per dolar AS.







Pada hari lalu Selasa, 01/11/2022, rupiah ditutup melemah 30 poin atau 0,19 persen ke posisi Rp15.628 per dolar AS dibandingkan posisi pada penutupan perdagangan sebelumnya Rp15.598 per dolar AS.

Insiden berdarah malam perayaan Halloween terjadi di Amerika Serikat, di mana sekitar 14 orang dilaporkan terluka akibat penembakan di kawasan Garfield Park Chicago.







Inspektur Polisi Chicago mengatakan kepada wartawan, Selasa, 01/11/2022, bahwa serangan itu terjadi sekitar pukul 21:30 waktu setempat ketika kerumunan orang berkumpul di sudut California Avenue dan Polk Street.


"Beberapa tembakan dilepaskan tanpa pandang bulu dari kendaraan dalam hitungan detik," kata Brown, menambahkan bahwa satu orang ditabrak mobil dalam insiden itu, seperti dikutip dari AFP.


Menurut petugas, anak-anak berusia tiga, 11, dan 13 tahun termasuk di antara para korban. Mereka yang terluka dilarikan ke rumah sakit setempat dalam kondisi mulai dari tidak mengancam jiwa hingga kritis.


Sejauh ini belum ada laporan korban jiwa ataupun motif pelaku penembakan itu.







"Menurut data awal, setidaknya dua pria bersenjata terlibat dalam serangan itu," kata Brown.


Polisi mengatakan serangan drive-by hanya berlangsung 3 detik dan para penembak menembak secara acak ke kerumunan. Brown mengatakan tidak ada tersangka yang ditangkap dan motif serangan itu tidak jelas.


Sejauh ini, polisi mengatakan tidak ada korban jiwa yang dilaporkan akibat penembakan tersebut. Polisi hanya mengatakan para korban berada dalam "berbagai kondisi."


Seorang pengamat mengatakan kepada FOX 32 Chicago bahwa dia mulai membantu orang-orang yang terluka, tetapi tidak ada cukup kendaraan darurat di sana untuk menampung seorang anak yang terluka.







"Kami mengambil gadis lain, seorang gadis kecil, sekitar 13 tahun, dan kami membawanya ke ambulans itu," saksi mata menceritakan. "Tapi sopir ambulans berkata, 'Tidak, kami tidak bisa membawanya masuk karena Anda memiliki orang yang lebih buruk.' Jadi kami hanya mendudukkannya di bumper.


Saksi mata yang sama mengatakan dia menemukan seorang gadis kecil dengan luka tembak di bawah lututnya dan membawanya ke rumah sakit terdekat. Dia juga melihat seorang pria dewasa yang dilaporkan ditembak di kepala.


"Dia tergeletak di tanah dan mereka mengatakan dia ditembak di kepala, dan dia berlumuran darah di mana-mana," kata pria itu.

Kepala Sekolah Terlibat Teroris di Sumenep, Padahal Sudah Dibina NKRI Harga Mati

Kepala Sekolah Terlibat Teroris di Sumenep, Padahal Sudah Dibina NKRI Harga Mati

Pembinaan tentang nasionalisme dan cinta tanah air sudah dilakukan. Materi bimbingan teknis (Bimtek) NKRI harga mati juga rutin disampaikan kepada pegawai pemerintahan atau PNS.







Namun, nyatanya masih ada PNS yang diduga terlibat jaringan terorisme. Ini misalnya terjadi di Kabupaten Sumenep Madura Jawa Timur ( Jatim ). Apalagi terduganya merupakan seorang PNS kepala sekolah negeri.


Sebelumnya, Tim Densus 88 Antiteror menangkap tiga orang di Sumenep diduga terkait jaringan teroris. Satu dari tiga terduga itu teridentifikasi sebagai kepala sekolah SDN Kecamatan Semanding berinisial AR.


Terkait penangkapan AR ini, Bupati Sumenep Ach. Fauzi mengaku meminta Dinas Pendidikan segera mengumpulkan seluruh kepala sekolah. Ia meminta para kasek ini diberi pembekalan khusus.


"Saya minta para kepala sekolah ini dikumpulkan per kawedanan. Diberikan pembekalan khusus, menyikapi penangkapan oleh Densus 88 itu," katanya pada hari Selasa, 01/11/2022.







"Sebenarnya kalau soal pembinaan tentang NKRI harga mati ini sudah ada di setiap bimtek. Apalagi kepala sekolah. Karena untuk jadi kepala sekolah ini memang harus mengikuti pembinaan terlebih dahulu. Tapi memang repot kalau sudah ‘terpapar’ aliran itu," ujar Bupati menambahkan.


Ia menjelaskan, sebelum AR ditangkap Tim Densus 88 sebenarnya pihaknya sudah mencium gelagat gerakan AR. Karena itu, ia sempat meminta pada Kepala Desa Pangarangan untuk melakukan pendekatan persuasif pada yang bersangkutan.


Sementara itu pascapenangkapan AR, Dinas Pendidikan setempat memastikan kegiatan belajar mengajar (KBM) di SDN Kecamatan Manding berjalan normal, meski kepala sekolah di SD tersebut telah ditangkap Densus 88.


"Tapi ternyata Densus sudah mengincar dan akhirnya yang bersangkutan ditangkap," katanya menambahkan.


Selain AR, dua orang lagi yang ditangkap Tim Densus masing-masing berinisial NH dan S. Ketiganya dibekuk pada hari Jumat, 28/10/2022. NH ditangkap di Kecamatan Kalianget dan S ditangkap di Desa Pangarangan Sumenep.







"Saya sudah meminta kepada Kepala Bidang TK dan SD untuk datang ke sekolah tersebut, memastikan KBM tetap berlangsung normal," kata Kepala Dinas Pendidikan Sumenep Agus Dwi Syaputra.


Ia mengaku juga meminta kepala bidang untuk mengumpulkan guru-guru dan pengawas di SD Manding, agar jangan sampai kejadian tersebut terulang.


"Mangkanya sekarang untuk siswa ini di kurikulum merdeka, ada Profil Palajar Pancasila. Ini tentu saja untuk menanamkan rasa cinta pada NKRI sejak dini," ujarnya.

Only Russia’s complete and definitive victory in Ukraine will guarantee protection from a global conflict, to which the West is pushing the world, the deputy head of Russia’s Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, said on his Telegram channel on Tuesday.







"Let's call a spade a spade. Western countries are pushing the world to a global war. Only the complete and final victory of Russia will be a safeguard against a world conflict," he said in response to the Western countries’ frequent speculations to the effect "Russia cannot be allowed to win the war."


Medvedev invited his subscribers to follow "simple formal logic."


"If it is not Russia that is expected to win, then, apparently, it is Ukraine. Ukraine’s aim in the war, proclaimed by the Kiev regime, is the retaking of all territories that previously belonged to it. In other words, their annexation from Russia. This is a threat to the existence of our state and the collapse of today's Russia," he stated.


Medvedev concluded that such a possibility was a direct reason for using paragraph 19 of the fundamental principles of Russia’s state policy in the field of nuclear deterrence.







"Who is planning a nuclear conflict in reality, may I ask? What is this, if not a direct provocation of a world war with the use of nuclear weapons?" he said.


According to paragraph 19 of the mentioned document, the conditions under which Russia may use nuclear weapons are reliable information about the launch of ballistic missiles attacking the territories of Russia or its allies, the enemy’s use of nuclear weapons or other types of weapons of mass destruction on the territories of Russia and its allies, the enemy’s impact on Russia’s critical state or military facilities whose failure will incapacitate the retaliatory nuclear forces. In addition, paragraph 19 mentions among these conditions an act of aggression against Russia with the use of conventional weapons endangering the very existence of the state, which Medvedev mentioned in his post.
