The G7 said Russia would face “severe consequences” for using any weapons of mass destruction.
Russia faces serious consequences if the ruling regime of the Russian Federation decides to use any kind of weapons of mass destruction in the war against Ukraine. This was stated in the joint statement of the leaders of the G7 foreign ministries, published on Friday, November 4.
“Any use by Russia of chemical, biological or nuclear weapons would have serious consequences,” the document said.
In addition, they excluded all Russian statements about the alleged preparation of a radiological “dirty bomb” by Ukraine.
“The audit conducted by the IAEA confirmed that these allegations are unfounded, and we thank Ukraine for its transparency,” the statement said.
The G7 countries also expressed support for the IAEA’s efforts to create a security zone around the Zaporozhye NPP. They are ready “in the future to impose economic costs on the Russian Federation and other countries, as well as on individuals or legal entities that provide military support to Moscow in its war of aggression.”
The statement also called on Belarus to stop contributing to the aggressive war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine: permission for Russian forces to use the territory of the Republic of Belarus as a springboard. The G7 is ready to introduce “massive new sanctions” against the ruling regime of Belarus for the further support of the Russian Federation.
“We honor the courage and resilience of the Ukrainian people against the backdrop of Russia’s unprovoked aggression, we are working hard to help Ukraine meet its winter needs,” the document concluded.
As you know, The New York Times said that the Russian Defense Ministry recently discussed the possible use of nuclear weapons in the war against Ukraine.
However, Washington said it was not following Russia’s preparations for the possible use of nuclear weapons in response to this media information.
