Putin on Tuesday lowered Russia\u2019s threshold for the use of nuclear weapons, a long-planned move whose timing appeared designed to show the Kremlin could respond aggressively to Ukrainian strikes on Russian territory with American long-range missiles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The decree signed by Mr. Putin implemented a revised version of Russia\u2019s nuclear doctrine that Mr. Putin <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/09\/25\/world\/europe\/putin-russia-nuclear-doctrine.html\" title=\"\">described in televised remarks in September<\/a>. But the timing was clearly meant to send a message, coming just two days after the news that <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/11\/17\/us\/politics\/biden-ukraine-russia-atacms-missiles.html\" title=\"\">President Biden had authorized<\/a> the use of U.S.-supplied long-range missiles by Ukraine for strikes inside Russia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Asked whether Russia could respond with nuclear weapons to such strikes, Dmitri S. Peskov, Mr. Putin\u2019s spokesman, repeated the new doctrine\u2019s language that Russia \u201creserves the right\u201d to use such weapons to respond to a conventional-weapons attack that creates a \u201ccritical threat\u201d to its \u201csovereignty and territorial integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Russia\u2019s Ministry of Defense <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/11\/19\/world\/europe\/ukraine-russia-atacms-missiles.html\" title=\"\">later announced<\/a> that Kyiv had used the long-range ballistic missiles known as the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/11\/17\/world\/europe\/what-are-atacms-missiles-ukraine-russia.html#link-30e99971\" title=\"\">Army Tactical Missile System<\/a>, or ATACMS, in a pre-dawn attack on an ammunition depot in southwestern Russia. A senior American and a senior Ukrainian official, both of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss ongoing operations, confirmed that ATACMS were used.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The White House played down Mr. Putin\u2019s new doctrine.
