MOSCOW, November 15. /TASS/. Russia has no plans to resume nuclear tests, but will take appropriate measures if the United States or any other country does this, Russian Permanent Representative to the Vienna-based international organizations Mikhail Ulyanov warned.

"Naturally, it would be too optimistic to completely rule out the possibility of a resumption of nuclear tests, but I am convinced that, provided the nuclear powers take a responsible approach, there is every opportunity to prevent such a scenario. It is important that countries strictly adhere to voluntary national moratoriums. Russia adheres to this approach, but, as Russian President Vladimir Putin has stated, should the United States or other countries carry out nuclear tests, our country too will have to take appropriate countermeasures in response," he said in an interview with the Kommersant daily.

AS for accusations against Russia and China, "the United States, as is often the case with them, does not bother to provide any with evidence, which would be entirely logical in this context, as there simply cannot be any," he added.
