After Russia reveals new Burevestnik nuclear missile, Putin aide warns west against arming Ukraine

Russian Presidential Spokesperson Dmitri Peskov warns that any Ukrainian strikes deep into Russian territory—especially using imported British, German, or Italian missiles—will trigger a “stunning” and “overwhelming” response from Moscow, echoing President Putin’s latest statements. Peskov says Ukraine lacks the domestic capability to produce its claimed new missiles, asserting these are likely rebranded European imports. He clarifies that while discussions for a Trump–Putin summit remain paused due to lack of negotiation groundwork and continued EU opposition, both presidents are committed to avoiding “meetings for the sake of meetings.” As the West debates further arms shipments and military escalation, Peskov maintains that Russia prioritizes national security interests and will retaliate with decisive force—including the deployment of new strategic weaponry like the Burevestnik cruise missile—against any attacks inside Russian borders.
