German media reported that Western intelligence agencies intercepted a message from the Russian Navy, which discussed the scenario of a nuclear strike.
Western intelligence agencies intercepted a radio message from the Russian Navy discussing scenarios for a nuclear strike on Germany. This happened during a Russian maneuver in the Baltic Sea at the end of 2021. It was reported by the German edition of Spiegel.
The media reported that the blockade was about nuclear strikes on Germany, indicating three targets: Berlin, the United States air base in Ramstein and Buchel air base, where the US army stores nuclear weapons .
Security experts have two explanations for this blocking. Some are sure that the use of nuclear weapons was discussed and carried out in military exercises, which also happened during NATO maneuvers. Others believe that the Russians knew about the wiretapping, and therefore named the targets deliberately to intimidate the West.
A Civey poll for Spiegel shows that in Germany, 51% of Germans worry about the possibility of a nuclear war, 57% fear a Russian nuclear strike on Ukraine, and 37% fear the Germany.
It will be remembered that the head of the Pentagon, Lloyd Austin, said that if Russia uses nuclear weapons, it will receive a serious international response to it.
According to US President Joseph Biden, Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin denies the possibility of using nuclear weapons in Ukraine, but continues to talk about it.
