Norwegian intelligence reports growing threat of Russia's use of nuclear weapons

This is revealed in an annual report by the Norwegian Intelligence Service

The intelligence service notes that the main nuclear deterrent forces are on submarines in the Russian Northern Fleet:

While Russia also has submarines, anti-satellite weapons and cyber capabilities that could threaten Norway and the NATO military alliance, tactical nuclear weapons are a particularly serious threat in several operational scenarios in which NATO countries could be involved.

At the same time, U.S. intelligence has stated that it has not yet seen any indication that Russia has deployed nuclear weapons in the Arctic.
