After the terrorist attack in Moscow: Russia sees itself at war with NATO. Despite US warning: According to Russia, the real “masterminds and sponsors” of a terrorist attack are in Ukraine.
Russia's recriminations come amid increasingly confrontational anti-NATO rhetoric from senior security officials. Several of these officials have repeatedly hinted at Russia's possible use of nuclear weapons. At least two members of the cell that planned the synagogue attack were killed by FSB agents when they opened to fire.
