The Pentagon sees no indications that Putin is preparing to launch a nuclear strike on Ukraine.

The United States was prepared to alter its nuclear doctrine in response to the aggressive actions of Russia. This statement was made by Sabrina Singh, the Deputy Press Secretary of the American Department of Defense, during a briefing on November 19, the transcript of which was published on the department's website.
Пентагон не обнаружил свидетельств подготовки Путина к ядерному удару по Украине.

The Pentagon is "not surprised" by this, as Russia has been "signaling" it for the past several weeks.

"This is the same irresponsible rhetoric we have seen before, and which we have frankly observed over the last two years," Singh stated, emphasizing that Washington is not at war with Moscow, and that it is Russia that continues to escalate.

However, at this moment, the U.S. does not see any preparations by the Kremlin for the use of strategic weapons on Ukrainian territory.

"There are no signs that Russia is preparing to use nuclear weapons on the territory of Ukraine. And we do not see any changes that need to be made to our own nuclear posture," Singh declared.
