of the leaders of America, Russia, China, France and Britain. It affirmed that “a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought” and committed those countries to work towards disarmament and the reduction of nuclear risks. Nearly two months later, Russia’s president Vladimir Putin unleashed a brutal, unjustified attack on Ukraine unlike anything in Europe since the second world war.
Russia faces no threat of attack, let alone nuclear attack from America, Britain, France, or NATO. While President Joe Biden and NATO have made clear that they would respond to any Russian attack on a NATO member, Ukraine is not a member of the alliance. And America and NATO have stated flatly that they will not engage Russia on Ukrainian territory. Neither America nor its allies want a war—conventional or nuclear—with Russia.
Mr Putin’s frustration is reportedly growing with Ukraine’s resistance. The West is supporting Ukraine with military and humanitarian assistance while pressuring Russia with unprecedented economic sanctions. As Mr Putin grows angry and impatient, the risks of a broader conflict grow. Failing to achieve a quick or decisive victory, Mr Putin may escalate atrocities against Ukrainian civil society and continue his nuclear sabre rattling.
When America and the Soviet Union were “eyeball to eyeball” opposing one another with nuclear threats during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, Presidents Khrushchev and Kennedy emerged with an even greater understanding of the risks of nuclear use, particularly during a crisis.
ErnestMoniz Mr., Putin does not give a shit what folk think. he as made up his mind and that, that. he is the man who will never ever back down. he will pull out all the stops to archive his goal, nuclear, napalm, Gas , and other good stuff he as at his disposal. to archive his goal.

ErnestMoniz Right! However, do you remember the 'Chekhov's Gun' in dramaturgy? It's the same thing. If the weapon is there, it will be used at some point. The life imitates art...

Neoavatara ErnestMoniz Guest essays from 6 months ago will surely put a dent in Putin’s nuclear threat. This is the state of today’s journalistic standards.
ErnestMoniz EconUS who is publishing your Tweets? Poking the bear much? Putin only said he would use Nukes in response to NATO stating they may have grounds to use their Nuclear arsenal against Russia… A little different to how you’re phrasing it.
ErnestMoniz Putin stop the war, stop this madness.
ErnestMoniz Tell Liz Truss that.
Lol...you will define everything..the sanctions, what nations should buy and from where and now....rules of war...
fact is, NATO is expanded, Russia has been weakened, EU has been weakened, more countries are buying weapons and LNG from the US, see what they do, not what the say
Russia vs NATO. Using Ukraine as proxy.
So ridiculous since he started the fight
There are no good parallels for Russian incursions near and dear to America because we wouldn’t tolerate it. Somehow it’s okay for us to arm the Ukrainians… 🤔 And now, w 500 k soldiers, Putin will destroy ALL of Ukraine. Didn’t have to happen this way. Hunter & Burisma 👀
I don’t think you can say that America and its allies aren’t threatening Russia by arming rebels in a country that was irreparably connected w Ukraine through the country’s founding in Catherine the Great’s epoch. How would the US react if the Russkis armed Mexican terrorists?
track particular
wants to say us, that Russia can scare us, and occupy territories, but we cannot do anything just feel fear
Would Putin make such a threat if Ukraine still had it's nukes? The message seems t/b; eliminate all nukes or every nation nuke up.
The failure to control Russia's dead hand system is a big deal in spite of having taken many years.
If that’s the best idea so far, we really are in deep trouble. If with today’s technology we can’t put the best brains together to build something for defensive purposes, then we may end up watching more Ukraine incidents.
