Moscow, Jan 30 (Prensa Latina) Moscow considers the nuclear weapons of NATO countries (the United States, the United Kingdom and France) a point to be taken into account for Russian defense, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.

“We consider all nuclear weapons of this NATO trio as a single nuclear arsenal and, accordingly, we work out our plans to reliably ensure security,” he told in a press conference.
