Sidorchik responded by asking if Russian soldiers who fought Nazi Germany in World War II had opened Pandora's box as well. He urged media outlets not to broadcast graphic footage of war crimes, saying it "won't lead to peace."

Russian talk of nuclear strikes has been dismissed by some experts as irresponsible "saber-rattling," as Insider reported in March.
