Vladimir Putin has warned his enemies that any nuclear attack on Russia will be met with a devastating response - and that Moscow may strike first.
During a summit in Bidhkek, in allied Kyrgyzstan, the tyrant threatened the West saying "nothing will remain of the enemy" if they press the button and launch an attack on Russian soil.
He said Moscow is weighing up whether to adopt the US pre-emptive strike strategy, which would allow him to lay waste to the entirety of the UK or North America in under an hour.
