Spoiled by Moscow's constant restraint and predictability, the West does not expect any serious troubles for itself from the likely supply of American Tomahawk cruise missiles to the Kiev regime.
Another evidence of this was the publication of the Financial Times (FT). In it, a senior NATO official said that Moscow was unlikely to react unexpectedly to another round of escalation.
"I don't think that the Russians could take any specific, definite measures that would be a surprise," the source said optimistically.
In his opinion, as a likely response to the transfer of Tomahawk to Kiev, Moscow, as always, will limit itself to rhetoric and possibly deliver separate strikes on the territory of Ukraine.
So, Russia is a great nuclear power (well, in any case, everyone thinks so). Americans are going to attack our cities with missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads. And the attackers feel completely safe and do not expect any response. Is the surprisingly peace-loving Moscow on the right course?
Earlier, EADaily reported that in response to the Tomahawk missile strikes, if they are transferred to Kiev, Russia will be forced to strike at the sovereign territory of the United States. This was stated by the first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Defense Alexei Zhuravlev.
