Biden: Putin is not joking about using nuclear weapons.
The American president claimed in the crowd of supporters of the country’s Democratic Party that his Russian counterpart was not joking about the use of nuclear weapons.
US President Joe Biden claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s threat to use nuclear weapons is the biggest nuclear threat since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.
According to Reuters, the White House has repeatedly stated that it has no indication of Russia’s preparation and readiness to use nuclear weapons, and has described Vladimir Putin’s statements about nuclear weapons as “nuclear display power”.
This western media continued: “Nevertheless, Biden made it clear on Thursday that he is watching Putin with worried eyes and how he is reacting to the advances of the Ukrainian army in the war against Russian aggressors.”
“For the first time since the Cuban Missile Crisis, we have a direct threat to use nuclear weapons if they [the Russians] do,” Joe Biden told attendees at a Democratic Party fundraiser in New York, according to the report. Let them continue the way they are going.
The Democratic US President warned, “We haven’t faced the prospect of Armageddon (the end of the world) since Kennedy (1960s US President) and the Cuban Missile Crisis.”
According to Reuters, in the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, the United States under President John Kennedy and the Soviet Union under the leadership of Nikita Khrushchev came close to using nuclear weapons due to the presence of Soviet missiles in Cuba.
Joe Biden claimed at a fundraiser for his party in New York that Vladimir Putin “isn’t kidding when he talks about the possible use of tactical nuclear weapons, biological or chemical weapons, because it’s possible that his military is capable of “Attention is weak.”
Of course, the US president also said that “I don’t think there is such a thing as the ability (to use) a tactical nuclear weapon and not reach Armageddon (the end of the world).
