Russia had no obligation to inform the United States about the launch of a new ballistic missile, but did so automatically. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov mentioned this when answering a question from a socialbites.ca correspondent. Russian Armed Forces hit a facility in the Dnieper city of Ukraine with an Oreshnik missile.
“This missile is not intercontinental, so it is a medium-range missile. Therefore, the Russian Federation has no obligation to notify about this launch. However, there is a Russian National Nuclear Risk Reduction Center (NTCUYA) that operates automatically and maintains constant communication with the same system as in the USA. In automatic mode, a warning is sent through this system 30 minutes before launch because the short and medium range missile does not function like an intercontinental missile, but since it is still ballistic, this center works in automatic mode. ”- said the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation.
On November 21, Vladimir Putin announced that Russia had attacked the Yuzhmash facility in the Dnieper city using its latest Oreshnik medium-range missile system. According to him, even modern Western air defense systems cannot survive such attacks.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the same day that the Russian Federation did not warn the United States about the Oreshnik attack on Ukraine because the country “did not have such an obligation.” Soon Peskov made a new statement: the US notification was sent automatically 30 minutes before the launch of the missile.
