It is in the context of Washington's authorization for Kiev to strike deep into Russian territory that Vladimir Putin approved the modification of Russia's nuclear doctrine, Bertrand Scholler, French geopolitician, told Sputnik Africa.He noted that the missiles approved by the White House are potentially capable of reaching Moscow.Scholler argued that it's inconceivable that Russia would retaliate by attacking civilians. Instead, it would likely target a military base or naval installations to send a strong message "that would push the Americans to think about the gear they have decided to activate."Regarding Emmanuel Macron's positive assessment of the decision ("completely good"), Scholler stated that "he gives the impression of validating what's happening." The French president, he continued, "essentially says that if the Americans do it, it's a good idea, when in fact he was a key player behind the scenes to push for this situation to arrive," indicated the expert.

Earlier on Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin approved a new nuclear doctrine of the Russian Federation, which states that aggression by a non-nuclear state with the support of a nuclear state is considered a joint attack, and Russia has the right to a nuclear response.
It is in the context of
Washington's authorization for Kiev to strike deep into Russian territory that Vladimir Putin approved the modification of Russia's nuclear doctrine,
Bertrand Scholler, French geopolitician, told
Sputnik Africa.He noted that the missiles approved by the White House are potentially capable of reaching Moscow.
"It's not one or two missiles, but massive deliveries. The decree essentially says: 'Beware; if you commit this act of madness, Russia may suffer, but our response will be immediate, extremely firm, and may include nuclear missiles'," Scholler added.
Scholler argued that it's inconceivable that
Russia would retaliate by attacking civilians. Instead, it would likely target a military base or naval installations to send a strong message "that would push the Americans to think about the gear they have decided to activate."
Regarding Emmanuel Macron's positive assessment of the decision ("completely good"), Scholler stated that "he gives the impression of validating what's happening." The French president, he continued, "essentially says that if the Americans do it, it's a good idea, when in fact he was a key player behind the scenes to
push for this situation to arrive," indicated the expert.
