Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin says it would be inappropriate for Russia to respond to a “child drone” attack with nuclear weapons. “The use of nuclear weapons in response to a drone is out of the question,” says Prigozhin. “We come across as clowns when we threaten to do so in response to a child drone.”

The boss of the Russian mercenary army makes his opinion public this time through the press service of his company Concord. This is reported by Russian and Ukrainian media, including the Ukrainian newspaper ‘Focus’. Prigozhin believes it is important that those who had to enforce the ban on drone flights over the Kremlin be brought to justice. He calls for a thorough investigation into the attack. Russia must also rule the skies in the field of drones, said the Wagner boss.
“Children’s Drone”
“The use of nuclear weapons in response to the drone attack is out of the question,” said Prigozhin. “We come across as clowns when we threaten such powerful weapons in response to a child drone.”
The Kremlin accuses Ukraine of carrying out a drone attack on the Kremlin on the night from Tuesday to Wednesday. The Russians intercepted two drones they say were used to kill President Vladimir Putin. The Kremlin reserves the right to take “countermeasures”. Ukraine denies the allegations, saying the attack was staged as justification for an escalation.
