MOSCOW, November 19. /TASS/. The amendments that are supposed to be introduced to the Russian nuclear doctrine have been practically formulated, but have not been legally cemented yet, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told TASS.

"[The amendments] have not been formalized yet. They have been formulated. They will be formalized as necessary," the spokesman said.

The parameters of the amendment of the Russian nuclear doctrines have been announced by President Vladimir Putin on September 25. In particular, the Russian leader said that "the category of states and military unions subject to nuclear deterrence has been expanded."

A number of other updates are implied. Russia will view an aggression from a non-nuclear state, carried out with participation or support of a nuclear state as their joint attack. A massive launch of strategic and tactical planes, cruise missiles, drones, hypersonic and other aerial vehicles and their violation of the Russian border will become grounds for the use of nuclear weapons. An aggression against Belarus - a Russia’s ally - may also cause a nuclear strike.
