Russia may have nuclear arms in Crimea, hacked EU cables warn
Tehran (KNA) - Brussels has launched an investigation into the apparent hacking of the EU’s diplomatic communications network, after thousands of cables were made public, including descriptions of Donald Trump as a “bully” and Crimea as a “hot zone” where nuclear weapons may now be present.
The dump of confidential cables on a public site lays bare the concerns of EU diplomats and officials over the Trump administration and its struggle in dealing with Russia and China.
Among the reports made public is a warning on 8 February that Crimea had been turned into a "hot zone where nuclear warheads might have already been deployed".
Russia illegally annexed the Ukrainian territory in 2014. In public, neither the EU nor the US has suggested there is any evidence of the presence of nuclear weapons.
