How the Russians are trying to present the unprecedented attack by Ukraine against Moscow's nuclear “triad”

The Russian state media and Moscow's military bloggers tried to present Ukraine Sunday attacks on Russia's military targets as undermining Russia's nuclear stability and as a reason for a nuclear response-resuming Kremlin's rhetoric on nuclear threat, meant to prevent the Western support for the Ukraine. his last evaluation.

The publication of Moskovskii Komsomolets, based in Moscow, has amplified Russian political scientists Sergei Markov, according to which Ukrainian attacks with drone air bases are a sufficient reason for the use of nuclear weapons, according to the Russian nuclear doctrine approved by Putin, because they have targeted Russia's strategic potential.

Many Russian military bloggers, including those affiliated with the Kremlin, made similar statements about the doctrinal use of nuclear weapons and explicitly asked Russia to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine in response to these attacks.

“Russia has constantly used nuclear rhetoric throughout the war to influence the West to limit the help given to Ukraine or its ability to develop its own hit capabilities,” says ISW.

Repeated threats of Russia with the use of nuclear weapons

Russian President Vladimir Putin promulgated the updated version of Russia's nuclear doctrine in November 2024, after the United States approved Ukrainian strokes on Russia, and the Institute for the War study evaluated that these doctrinal updates were part of Russia's efforts to determine Western factors.

ISW continues to believe that changes made to the nuclear doctrine of Russia are not a substantial change in nuclear posture, doctrine or threat to the use of nuclear weapons and that the use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine remains unlikely.

Ukraine has previously destroyed Russian strategic bombers and has long -range blows on Russian air bases that host strategic bombers and strategic bombing production companies.

Some Russian military bloggers blame the country's military leadership

In contrast, some Russian officials and military bloggers continue to blame the leadership in Moscow for the failure to defend the Russian military infrastructure against Ukrainian attacks-a frequent complaint throughout the war, following Ukraine's successful blows.

The deputy of the Russian State Duma and the former deputy commander of the Southern Military District (SMD), a lieutenant in retirement Andrei Gurulev (who previously criticized the Ministry of Defense of Russia and which Duma subsequently voted to eliminate from the Defense Committee) has accused the Special Services of Russian that they did not protect the aircraft and that they did not protect the aircraft hidden the drones to approach the targets.

Russian military bloggers said that Russia's higher military leadership continues to ignore the need to protect military installations and based on the fact that many critical military infrastructures are far from Ukraine.

These bloggers claimed that the attitude repeatedly led to “massive” failures and Ukraine's ability to violate Russia's borders and airspace. Bloggers have specifically criticized the decision of the Russian military command to store strategic planes in open spaces, without adequate defense.

The military bloggers repeatedly complained about the inability of the Russian army to adapt to repeated and successful Ukrainian attacks and to learn from mistakes during the war.

Russia blames Ukraine and for crashed bridges on Saturday

Russian officials accused Ukraine for the collapse of two bridges and train derailments that followed in western Russia, on May 31, most likely to justify the recent launch of Russian offensive operations in the Sumî region and the lack of interest of the Kremlin towards the peace negotiations.

Two railway bridges in the Briansk and Kursk regions collapsed on the night of May 31, causing derailments of trains. The head of the Ukrainian center to combat misinformation, Lieutenant Andrii Kovalenko, reacted to these derailments stating that Russia could carry out fake flag operations to disrupt the peace process and extend the war.

Russian officials and military bloggers have largely blamed Ukraine for the collapse of bridges, but have not provided any evidence to support these statements.

Russia's deputy, Andrei Kolesnik, said Russia should respond harshly and not just limit to train derails.

Moscow speaks of the transformation of Ukraine into a State Ciot

The chairman of the Committee of the Council of the Federation for Constitutional Legislation and the construction of the state, Andrei Klișas, said that the derailments indicate that a “terrorist group” controls Ukraine, which-according to it-has transformed into a “terrorist enclave” without legitimate borders or authorities.

Klișas asked Russia to create a “vast” buffer area in Ukraine to protect Russia from Ukrainian attacks and Russia to “denazize” and to “demilitize” Ukraine and to “rebuild” the Ukrainian state (a reference to the initial objectives of Russia's War to replace the current Government and to replace the current Government and to prevent one. Ukraine can be defended in the future).

A Russian military blogger reacted to Klișas's statements, claiming that Russia should set a “buffer area” to expand to western Ukraine and that Ukraine should exist as a residual state, with the capital in the city of Lvot.

The statement of the blogger reflects the recent appeal of the vice -president of the Russian Security Council, Dmitri Medvedev, for Russia to control a buffer area that includes almost all Ukraine, except for a relatively small part of the Volume and Liov regions.
