MOSCOW, March 13 — President Vladimir Putin said today that Russia’s nuclear triad—its three-pronged arsenal of weapons launched from land, sea and air—was “much more” advanced than that of the United States.
The Kremlin has touted its nuclear prowess throughout the two-year offensive in Ukraine, warning Western countries last month there was a “real” risk of nuclear catastrophe if they escalated the conflict.
“Our triad, the nuclear triad, it is more modern than any other triad. Only we and the Americans actually have such triads. And we have advanced much more here,” Putin said in an interview on state TV.
The West has accused Russia of reckless nuclear rhetoric since it launched its assault on Ukraine in February 2022.

Moscow is thought to possess over 5,000 nuclear warheads, the largest stockpile in the world.
In the same interview, Putin said Western countries sending their troops to Ukraine would not change the situation on the battlefield.
“If we talk about official military contingents of foreign countries, I am sure it will not change the situation on the battlefield. That is the most important thing. Just as supplying arms does not change anything,” Putin said.

His comments come after French leader Emmanuel Macron last month declined to rule out putting boots on the ground, a significant shift in rhetoric as Ukraine struggles on the battlefield.
While Macron since has doubled down on his remarks, several of Ukraine’s allies including Washington have distanced themselves from the idea, which stunned many in Europe.
Ukraine has ceded ground to Russian forces in recent months as it faces a myriad of shortages, from artillery to air defences, in part because a US$60 billion (RM281 billion) aid package remains held up in the US Congress. — AFP
