Statements by Russian President Vladimir Putin on the creation of a cruise missile with a nuclear power plant are unreliable.

This was said by the former deputy head of the General Staff, Lieutenant-General Igor Romanenko, InfoResist reports..

"First, they did not show any tests, they just made a statement. After all, they have been working on this problem since the beginning of this century. It is necessary to study. That is, the conversation, as I understand it, is that they are almost doing a nuclear missile on a cruise missile and so it can fly for a long time, change routes. That is, it is difficult to destroy anti-missile means and t. ", - said Romanenko.

At the same time, the lieutenant-general is sure that if this statement were true, Russia would not have fought against Ukraine.

"And he (Vladimir Putin) is persistently trying to decide this, with his neighbors. So here, of course, this is a game and propaganda. But, of course, this is a serious weapon. Once again it shows that there is such a threat both to the European and Ukraine, and to Trump, "said the ex-deputy head of the General Staff.
