Russia's space agency chief said his nation could destroy NATO countries in 'half an hour' during a nuclear war

If a nuclear war were to take place, the head of the Russian space agency said his country could destroy NATO countries.

The message was shared in Russian on his Telegram channel. He said that the destruction could happen in 30 minutes.

The enemy will have to be defeated by military means.

Russian president Vladimir Putin put Russia's nuclear deterrent forces on high alert in February because of the sanctions the US and EU have taken against it.

In April, NATO posted a statement on its website saying that it condemns Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which is an independent, peaceful and democratic country, and a close NATO partner.

The Alliance calls on President Putin to stop the war immediately and to engage in genuine diplomacy.

NATO is in war against us. It has not been declared, but it does not change anything. It is obvious to everyone.

The decision to leave the International Space Station had already been affirmed, according to the statement made by Rogozin in April. He criticized the Western economic sanctions on Russia.

I believe that the restoration of normal relations between partners in the International Space Station and other joint projects is possible only if illegal sanctions are lifted.

The US, the European Union and the UK have increased sanctions against Russia since it invaded Ukraine.

The war, which Putin called a special military operation, had gone far beyond its original meaning, and was a war for the truth and the right of Russia.

Putin tried to justify the war by trying to "denzify" Ukraine.

They told NPR that Putin's language was offensive. Laura Jockusch, one of the experts, said there was no ethnic cleansing in the Ukraine. It is a fiction that is used by Putin to justify his war of aggression.

The term "Nazi" has become a generic term for "absolute evil", as Jockush pointed out in her email to NPR.
