Lavrov accuses West of fixating on 'nuclear war'

Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Thursday accused Western politicians of fixating on nuclear war.
"It is clear that World War Three can only be nuclear," Lavrov said in an online interview with Russian and foreign media.
"I would like to point out that it's in the heads of Western politicians that the idea of a nuclear war is spinning constantly, and not in the heads of Russians," he said.
"Therefore I assure you that we will not allow any provocations to throw us off balance," Lavrov added.
