EU’s Kallas: Russia Showing ‘Reckless Nuclear Brinkmanship’ in Latest Attacks on Ukraine

Russia’s latest attacks against Ukraine, which President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said involved an Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile, showed ‘reckless nuclear-brinkmanship,’ the European ‌Union’s foreign policy ‌chief Kaja ‌Kallas ⁠said on Sunday. “Russia ⁠hit a dead-end on the battlefield, so it terrorizes Ukraine with ⁠deliberate strikes on ‌city ‌centers. These ‌are abhorrent acts of ‌terror meant to kill as many civilians as possible,” ‌Kallas wrote on X. “Moscow reportedly using ⁠Oreshnik ⁠intermediate-range ballistic missiles – systems designed to carry nuclear warheads – is a political scare tactic and reckless nuclear brinkmanship,” Kallas said.
