"The Western line of steady escalation of the conflict with Russia carries the threat of a direct military clash between nuclear powers, which is fraught with catastrophic consequences," Russia's TASS state news agency cited Shoigu as saying. Shoigu also claimed the West intends to inflict"strategic defeat" on Russia in a"hybrid war", and praised the model of Russia-China relations as"exemplary", Russian state media reported.
