“Colleagues, you have gone a little too far with your nuclear hysteria,” said Serhiy Nikiforov, spokesman for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in response to the Russian accusations.
Nikiforov made it clear that in proposing a “preemptive strike” against Russia during his discussion with representatives of the Australian think tank Lowy Institute, the Ukrainian president had in mind the imposition of sanctions to prevent any use of nuclear weapons.
This morning, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Zelensky’s words confirm the need for a so-called “special military operation” in Ukraine.

“Yesterday, Zelensky called on his Western masters to launch a preemptive nuclear strike against Russia,” Lavrov said.
“Colleagues, you have gone a little too far with your nuclear hysteria and now you see nuclear attacks everywhere, even when there is no such thing,” replied Sergiy Nikiforov.
“The president talked about the period up to the beginning of the Russian invasion on February 24. Then there were preventive measures to prevent Russia from starting the war. Let me remind you that the only measures that were talked about then were preventive sanctions. “explained Zelensky’s spokesperson.

Nikiforov added that “only the terrorist country allowed by Russia” mentions the use of nuclear weapons.
“You will never hear such appeals from us,” Nikiforov stressed.
