Peskov did not notice any contradictions with the Russian Nuclear Doctrine in Medvedev's words

Nuclear powers don’t lose major conflicts that are pivotal for their destiny and that should be clear to any Western politician, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said on Thursday:

1. What Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said about nuclear powers’ involvement in conflicts is fully in line with Russia's nuclear doctrine, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov noted.

When asked if Medvedev’s statement marked a change in the nuclear doctrine, Peskov said: "No, it absolutely does not mean that, it is fully in line with our nuclear doctrine."

"Read the nuclear doctrine, there is no contradiction there," Peskov stressed.

*If nuclear power loses conventional war that could trigger nuclear conflict — Medvedev - TASS*

Nuclear powers don’t lose major conflicts that are pivotal for their destiny and that should be clear to any Western politician, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said on Thursday.

He was responding to the statements at the World Economic Forum in Davos that said Russia must lose.

"It doesn’t occur to [Western politicians] to make an elementary conclusion: If a nuclear power loses a conventional war that could trigger a nuclear war. Nuclear powers haven’t lost major conflicts that were pivotal for their destiny," Medvedev said on Telegram. "It has to be obvious to any person, even to a Western politician."

Medvedev posted the remarks ahead of a meeting of a Western group that coordinates military assistance to Kiev. The meeting is scheduled to take place at the Ramstein Air Base in Germany on January 20 and will be attended by US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley.
