Putin sends message to West with nuclear doctrine statements — Kremlin.
National reinforcement, is internal organisational issue and external relational and so international, issue. This is standard for every country, not just Russia. The significance and priority of this issue, citizens and so Russians, are conscious of. So do the friends of Russia, at the international level.
Internal and external interactions, work also interchangeably, because relations and organisations determine conditions. The Nord Stream sabotage and at greater scale, the war in Ukraine, are theoretically and practically, derivative of this.
Besides the national security and stability of Russia, national reinforcement, is also important issue for regional and international stability and security. Where, reinforcement means, energy in motion and in evolution. The rest is history.
In terms of foreign policy, Russia is right that nuclear energy production, which is necessary for climate change, requires international supervision and regulation. For all the understandable, security and environmental reasons. Also for technological cooperation in nuclear R&D.
Finally Russia is leading producer of nuclear energy and this also helps.
