US National Security Council spokesman says US takes Putin’s words about nuclear weapons seriously

Washington takes Russian President Vladimir Putin’s words about nuclear weapons seriously, but so far sees no need to change its strategic positions, US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said on Wednesday.
“We should always take this kind of rhetoric seriously. It’s not like what he’s been saying in the past seven months. We’ve taken it seriously,” Kirby said in response to a reporter’s related question.
“We are following Russia’s strategic position as best we can. If necessary, we will change our (position). We see no indication that this is required at the present time,” he added.
Earlier Wednesday, Putin warned those seeking to blackmail Russia with nuclear weapons that the wind rose could turn in their favor.
The President of the Russian Federation noted that “when the territorial integrity of our country is threatened, we will certainly use all the means at our disposal to protect Russia and our people. This is not a bluff.”
