The United States of America has reacted after Putin's threat, saying that there are no signs that Russia is preparing to use nuclear weapons.
State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said they will be watching it carefully anyway.
"This is not the first time we hear irresponsible rhetoric from Vladimir Putin. This is not the way the leader of a state armed with nuclear weapons should speak" , said Miller.
During a speech to the nation in Moscow, Putin said that Western countries risk inciting a nuclear war if they send troops to fight in Ukraine.
"We also have weapons with which they can hit targets on their territory. Don't they understand that the West must "definitely, in the end, understand that all this risks inciting a conflict with the use of nuclear weapons, and ultimately the destruction of civilization. We remember the fate of those who once sent their contingents to the territory of our country. But the consequences of possible interventions will be much more tragic now", he said.
