The Russian permanent representative to the UN Office and international organizations in Geneva told 24TV of Russia on February 5 that if the US deploys nukes in the territory of the UK, his country will counter it.

Making an issue of the fact that it is recently rumoured that a US air force base equipped with nukes might be reopened in the UK and nukes deployed in the Baltic coast area and Poland, he expressed concern that all this has caused tension.

Russia is watching the present situation and following how it develops, he said, and stressed that if relevant measures are taken, the country will inevitably counter it.
