US President Joe Biden questioned what Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday regarding his lack of intent to use a nuclear weapon in Ukraine, despite the fact that Russia has repeatedly emphasised its commitment to the leaders of the five nuclear states’ declaration that starting a nuclear war is inadmissible.
In an appearance with “News Nation,” Biden questioned why Putin keeps bringing up the subject if he doesn’t intend to do so.
Indicating that his counterpart might actually use nuclear weapons, he also inquired as to why Putin had mentioned having the ability to employ a tactical nuclear weapon.
These developments took place while the United States pledged to take these threats seriously and as Russia issued a dire warning in the event that this course of action was chosen.
Washington forewarned it and its allies about taking this action, deeming Moscow’s remarks about a threat of a devastating nuclear war to the entire world to be reckless and irresponsible.
It is significant that on September 21, Putin announced the country’s first reserve soldier mobilisation since World War II in order to send more troops to the Ukrainian battlefields.
When he intimated that he was prepared to use nuclear weapons to defend the security of Russian territory, the West warned that he was not being dishonest, which at the time started a wave of warnings that are still being issued today.
Russia is the largest nuclear force in the world based on the number of nuclear warheads it owns, as it has 5977 warheads, while the United States has 5428, according to the Union of American Scholars..
