Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned on Tuesday that Russia finds it "unacceptable" that American nuclear weapons are located in Europe, saying it is "high time to return them to the US," according to TASS.
Lavrov repeated claims that Ukraine is planning to acquire nuclear weapons, saying the country "threatens international security."
"Russia cannot but react to the real danger of Ukraine acquiring nuclear weapons and is taking all measures to prevent this," said the foreign minister.
On Sunday, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his military command to put Russia's deterrence forces - a reference to units which include nuclear arms - on high alert, citing aggressive statements by NATO leaders and economic sanctions against Moscow.

(61,033 posts)Again, WTF are the Russians going on about? Give or take a few hidden nukes here or there, the remaining nukes in European control still assure mutual, guaranteed destruction of Russia, Europe and the US if Putin launches any of his.

(77,027 posts)And no where else in Europe that I am aware of.
The US has nukes throughout Europe. 
Some of the French and UK nukes are sea based, housed in submarines.
Not all of them are land based. 
If you are aware of more missile silos, I would be interested to hear about them.

(61,033 posts)just about assures mutually, guaranteed destruction of both.
The Russians bringing hidden nukes into discussions is an obvious ploy to take attention away from their invasion of an innocent, sovereign state.

then widen the circle. 
This is Putins gambit to widen the terms for negotiation. 
He already thought about this. And its being played right on queue.
