Russia's rare open nuclear suitcase
Wherever Russian President Vladimir Putin goes, there is always an officer's suitcase, which is known as the "nuclear suitcase".
The Russian satellite network said that the 'nuclear suitcase' is a device for storing the password of nuclear weapons operations. There are three, which are respectively in the charge of the president, the Minister of defense and the chief of general staff.
On December 5, the Russian media disclosed the internal picture of Russia's "nuclear suitcase" for the first time, which was also the first time that the "nuclear suitcase" appeared on TV programs.
Yegorov, host of "military acceptance" program of Russian Red Star: as one of the components of "nuclear suitcase", there is an independent flash card, which is one of the secret keys. To be honest, we won't disclose the working details of this suitcase. Although this suitcase is not the latest, it was 50 years ago. Nevertheless, this is the first time that the 'nuclear suitcase' has been allowed to be publicly displayed and appear on TV programs.
Russian media said that Russia has set strict conditions for launching a nuclear strike. Basically, only when Russia encounters a nuclear attack will the president order to open the nuclear handbag and use nuclear force to retaliate.
