Details: Schallenberg has assumed that the war will continue, and both sides will be trying to start offensive operations in the spring.

Quote: "We should fear that not all levels of escalation have been reached yet. The fact that the President of the Russian Federation keeps pretty much openly swinging a nuclear club is insane."

More details: Schallenberg has pointed out that Austria’s approach, according to which nuclear weapons must be strictly forbidden everywhere, is right.

"As long as they [nuclear weapons – ed.] exist, someone will threaten to use them. It also shows the level of irresponsibility of Russian leadership," he added.

Background: Earlier, Andrei Kelin, Russia’s Ambassador to the UK, stated that Moscow was not planning on using nuclear weapons in the war against Ukraine.
