Siberian political figures have slammed thechief editor of the state-run RT news outlet for her calls to drop a nuclear bomb over Siberia as a way of sending a message to the West.RT editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan proposed detonating a thermonuclear device on our own territory, somewhere over Siberia, claiming that there would be no impact on the humans living below.What will happen is all electronic devices and satellites would be knocked out, Simonyan said on her television show Monday.Simonyans remarks were a deep insult toward Siberians, said Maria Prusakova, a Communist Party member in Russias lower house of parliament from the Altai republic.You need to apologize to the residents of Siberia at the very least, Prusakovasaidon Wednesday.The mayor of Siberias largest city Novosibirsk, Anatoly Lokot,cautioned that a hypothetical thermonuclear explosion could lead to unpredictable outcomes for thousands of years.Theres nothing good about thermonuclear explosions, Lokot told local media Wednesday.The Kremlin distanced itself from Simonyans remarks, with spokesman Dmitry Peskov telling reporters Tuesday that her words do not reflect Moscows official stance and that Russia has not abandoned its moratorium on nuclear testing.Nikolai Korolev, an aide to Moscow City Duma member Yevgeny Stupin,said he had petitioned Russias Interior Ministry and Investigative Committee to probe Simonyans remarks.In her proposal, Simonyan said that a nuclear detonation over Siberia was needed to send a painful message to the West amid a nuclear ultimatum thats becoming more and more impossible to avoid.This is the most humane option, she said.
