"If nuclear facilities appear in Northern Europe, they will become legitimate targets in the event of a war between Russia and NATO."

This was stated by Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.

"You don't need to be a military strategist to understand that these facilities will be a source of direct threat and, naturally, will inevitably be included in the list of legitimate targets defined by the scenario of a direct military confrontation between our country and NATO," Zakharova said.

"As a result, the security of countries that host nuclear weapons would suffer."

The worse Russia's situation gets, the more it threatens nuclear retaliation.
