West may not see a Russian nuclear attack coming, UK spy chief says

The West may not see a Russian nuclear attack coming, the UK's spy chief has said, reported from The Telegraph. 

GCHQ director Sir Jeremy Fleming told a security conference today: "Russia is the only nation talking about using nuclear weapons, and I have to say that it is extremely dangerous to do so.

"I would like to think that with our allies that we would have a good chance of spotting it, but of course, there are never any guarantees in this space."

Nato Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has said the defence alliance is "closely monitoring" Russia's nuclear forces.

He said Vladimir Putin's "veiled nuclear threats" were "dangerous and irresponsible," and the Kremlin knew that a nuclear war "cannot be won."
