Putin orders training of nuclear forces as despot is seen observing drills

VLADIMIR Putin has ordered drills involving Russia’s strategic nuclear forces in which they simulated a massive strike on the West.

The launches of ballistic and cruise missiles come as a US official has warned of “troubling developments” involving Russia’s nuclear arsenal.

Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said the drills were intended to simulate a massive nuclear strike by Russia in retaliation for a nuclear attack on its soil.

The Kremlin said that all tasks set for the exercise were fulfilled and all the missiles that were test-fired reached their designated targets.

The United States has said that Moscow informed it about the drills in advance.
