What I mean is, those are not the comments she made that are reported to have inflamed Putin's rhetoric and threat with nukes.
It is supposedly her earlier comments that if he takes Ukraine and doesnt stop there, the next step would be seen as an attack on NATO countries along the Ukrainian border and NATO would have to become involved.
As I understand it. That, combined with what he sees as illegal sanctions by the west, both of which he included in his statement.
Goes without saying, not that I think either is any reason whatsoever or justification for his position, it is a ridiculous stance of his no matter what the comments were. Just pointing out there seems to be a bit of confusion on ever moving commentary.
