MOSCOW, October 25. /TASS/. The next three weeks are to be extremely dangerous due to a potential nuclear provocation which Kiev may set up at the West’s instigation, the Lugansk People’s Republic’s (LPR) envoy to Moscow Rodion Miroshnik told TASS on Tuesday.
"That is why the next three weeks will be extremely dangerous in terms of a Western nuclear provocation organized by Kiev. The Democrats’ elections to the [US] Congress and the attempt to isolate Russia on the international stage are at stake," he said.
Miroshnik stressed that at the time the opportunity of accusing Russia of a nuclear provocation was quite beneficial for the US and the UK. According to him, "now is the time for this shoking provocation: radition hazard". "Two weeks left before the elections to the US Congress and three weeks before the G20 meeting in Indonesia," the LPR diplomat explained.
"I don’t exclude that the nuclear elements may already be on the territory controlled by Kiev. With all of these weapons, supplied by the West, it wouldn’t be difficult to smuggle it there," he added.
According to the information of the chief of the Russian army’s radiation, chemical and biological protection force, Lieutenant-General Igor Kirillov, the Kiev regime may disguise the detonation of a dirty bomb as an unexpected triggering of a Russian low-yield nuclear device. Kirillov recalled that a dirty bomb usually came in a container with radioactive isotopes and an explosive charge. Upon the charge’s detonation, the container is destroyed and the radioactive substance is dispersed by a shock wave, thus contaminating large swaths of land.
