New York threatened by a Russian missile?

On the television channelIT’Stat Russia 1, the hypothesis of a nuclear strike on the city of New York (United States) arouses the hilarity of the Russian presenters. A man explains that if “7.5 megatons were to fall on the territory of our so-called partner (…) then a city like New York, a nice city, will be wiped off the map, completely destroyed with a single missile“. Remarks denounced on Twitter by an American journalist and which come two days after the announcement by Russia of the first successful test firing of the intercontinental ballistic missile, Sarmat.

This new generation weapon has a very long range, praised by Vladimir Putin himself. He describes it as a weapon “unique that will strengthen the military potential” of the Russian army. According to him, she “will keep Russia safe from external threats and make those who try to threaten think twice” Russia with “unleashed and aggressive rhetoric”. The power of this missile would be 200 times greater than the bombs of Hiroshima (Japan) and Nagasaki.
