The line of the West, in particular the United States and NATO, on an actual military confrontation with Russia is fraught with catastrophic consequences, Moscow is forced to send them warning signals about the inadmissibility of a direct clash between nuclear powers, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.

“In the context of the West’s efforts to contain Russia, the line of the United States and NATO as a whole for an actual military confrontation with us poses a serious threat. Obviously, this is fraught with a direct clash of nuclear powers with catastrophic consequences. We are compelled to regularly send our warning signals in this regard. But instead of taking them seriously, the West is maliciously misrepresenting them and accusing us of using “rhetoric of threats,” Lavrov said in a video address to the participants of the Moscow Nonproliferation Conference.

He noted that Russia is “firmly committed to the logic of understanding that was enshrined in the joint documents of the countries of the nuclear five.”

“In accordance with the declaration of the five powers on the inadmissibility of nuclear war, it is necessary to prevent any armed conflict between countries possessing nuclear weapons. Russia proceeds precisely from this,” he stressed.
