“After Putin's statement yesterday that he is ready to raise the readiness of his nuclear weapons, which is insane in itself - I can't believe we can say that in 2022, but we hope there is no such risk. However, we cannot remain indifferent and we checked what is the possibility of having these tablets in our reserve.
