"Russia has warned of the possibility of a clash between nuclear powers at a forum in Beijing.
Addressing the Xiangshan Security Forum in China, Russia's defense minister Sergei Shoigu said that the U.S. and NATO continue "to try to undermine Russia's security and deprive us of the will to resist," according to Russian state news agency Tass.
Shoigu accused the West of trying to expand the war started by Vladimir Putin in Ukraine to the Asia-Pacific as he claimed that NATO countries are increasing their military presence in the region under the cover of an "ostentatious desire for dialogue." The Russian defense minister also said that the West's support for Ukraine showed that it is seeking a "strategic defeat of Russia."
Russia has pitched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine as a proxy battle between Moscow and the West, with the Kremlin and its propagandists condemning the military assistance given to Kyiv by its allies, predominantly NATO members."
