Washington had notified Moscow ahead of the launch of a Minuteman III missile earlier on Wednesday, Dmitry Peskov has said<\/strong><\/p>\n

The US informed Russia of its intention to launch a Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile before it was test-fired on Wednesday, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has stated.<\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters several hours after the launch, the official said the missile belongs to a class that must be identified prior to testing under international regulations.<\/p>\n

“We also notify [other nations] when conducting such launches,”<\/em> Peskov noted.<\/p>\n

Addressing Russia’s own military capabilities, Peskov said that while Moscow is “not taking part in any arms race,”<\/em> it has systematically developed its strategic weapons for years, in accordance with its own long-term vision.<\/p>\n

The official claimed that Russia currently possesses the “most modern nuclear triad in the world.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Earlier on Wednesday, the US Air Force announced it had successfully test-fired an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile from Vandenberg Space Force Base.<\/p>\n

The missile is capable of carrying a single nuclear warhead with an estimated atomic yield equivalent to over 300 kilotons of TNT – 20 times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan in 1945.<\/p>\n

Last week, US President Donald Trump ordered the Department of War to commence preparations for nuclear testing, claiming the US is the “only country that doesn’t test.”<\/em> He accused Russia and China of conducting “secret”<\/em> nuclear explosions – an allegation both Moscow and Beijing have rejected.<\/p>\n

At a cabinet meeting on Wednesday, Russian Defense Minister Andrey Belousov told President Vladimir Putin that Moscow “must respond to Washington’s steps,”<\/em> and “start preparing for full-scale nuclear tests immediately.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The Russian president noted, however, that Russia was determined to abide by the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty.<\/p>\n

“If the US or other states party to the relevant treaty conduct such tests, then Russia will also be required to take appropriate retaliatory measures,”<\/em> Putin clarified.<\/p>\n
