Putin Warns Direct Attack on Russia or Kaliningrad Could Trigger Use of All Available Weapons

Putin escalates nuclear rhetoric, explicitly linking any direct attack on Russia or an attempt to annex Kaliningrad to the potential use of 'all available weapons.' This marks a hardening of Moscow's red lines amid heightened tensions over the exclave, though it remains rhetorical posturing without immediate military action. The statement signals increased risk of miscalculation in the Baltic region.
