Washington has relieved global worries of nuclear threat, saying the US has no intention of using chemical weapons under any circumstance, even if Russia uses such in Ukraine.

Chemical

While addressing journalists aboard Air Force One on Friday, White House National Security Adviser, Jake Sullivan said Moscow would have itself to blame though, should it decide to resort to chemical warfare over Ukraine, adding that alliance leaders, however, resolved to not go easy on such brazen act of criminality.

“There will be a severe price if Russia uses chemical weapons. And I won’t go beyond that other than to say the United States has no intention of using chemical weapons, period, under any circumstance,” Sullivan asserted.

He further said there was now a “convergence” between Western leaders on what measures to take in case Russia uses chemical weapons and that the White House had set up a working group on the issue.
“We have made considerable efforts to put ourselves in a position to respond effectively”, he said, shortly before a plane carrying US President Joe Biden landed in Poland – around 80 kilometres (50 miles) from the border with Ukraine.

Earlier on Friday, the Kremlin issued a statement accusing Washington of ‘’seeking to divert attention from his country’s chemical and biological weapons programme’’ to further stimulate the ravaging scandal and bile against Moscow’s ‘military operations in Ukraine.
Dmitry Sergeyevich Peskov Press Secretary and Spokesman for the Russian President were quoted saying, “We see this as an attempt to divert attention to some kind of ephemeral, allegedly existing threat against the backdrop of a scandal that is flaring up in the world involving chemical and biological weapons programmes that the United States has been carrying out in various countries, including Ukraine’’.
“There are many people in the world who are worried about what the Americans were doing, what we still don’t know and what could have happened because of all this research and what could potentially happen in the future”, Peskov said Friday.
