Putin might not be bluffing, after all.

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky confessed that Vladimir Putin really might not be bluffing and could very well use nuclear weapons.

Last week, Putin said that Russia would “use all the means available to us” to defend Russian territory.

“If there is a threat to the territorial integrity of our country and for protecting our people, we will certainly use all the means available to us. And I’m not bluffing,” said a stern Putin.

“Look, maybe yesterday it was a bluff,” Zelensky told CBS host Margaret Brennan. “Now, it could be a reality.”

Putin recently mobilized 300,000 troops.

Other sources say Putin will be adding more. North Korea has also offered to donate troops.

Zelensky insisted that Putin “knows that he is losing the war.” Even though “Putin knows he is losing the war,” Zelensky told CBS that the Ukrainian government still needs billions more dollars, more weapons, and more sanctions on Russia to continue the fight.

The United States donates $1.5 billion every month to support the Ukrainian budget, according to Zelensky.

“We need to keep putting pressure on him and not allow him to continue,” he said, referring to Putin.

Fight breaks out in the city of Omsk among men who’ve been drafted and local police forcing them onto buses. Draftees called on the police to come die with them in the trenches.

RUSSIA & UKRAINE: TIMELINE OF EVENTS

On February 20th, 2022, VP Harris stated that the Ukraine should join NATO which was a direct violation of the Belgrade Agreement.

The Ukraine, the 3rd largest nuclear power at the time, gave up its nuclear weapons and NATO promised not to invade as did Russia provided Ukraine was to remain NEUTRAL.

Then 3 days later, Zelensky announced that he would pursue nuclear weapons to defend against Russia.

The next day, Putin invaded to protect the Donbas on February 24th.

A newly discovered document from March 1991 shows US, UK, French, and German officials discussing a pledge made to Russia that NATO will not expand to Poland and beyond.

Its publication by the German magazine Der Spiegel on Friday proves Moscow right and NATO wrong on the matter.

The minutes of a March 6, 1991 meeting in Bonn between political directors of the foreign ministries of the US, UK, France, and Germany contain multiple references to “2+4” talks on German unification in which the West made it “clear” to the Soviet Union that NATO will not expand past the eastern borders of Germany.

“We made it clear to the Soviet Union – in the 2+4 talks, as well as in other negotiations – that we do not intend to benefit from the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Eastern Europe,” the document quotes US Assistant Secretary of State for Europe and Canada Raymond Seitz.

“NATO should not expand to the east, either officially or unofficially,” Seitz added.

A British representative also mentions the existence of a “general agreement” that membership of NATO for eastern European countries is “unacceptable.”

“We had made it clear during the 2+4 negotiations that we would not extend NATO beyond the Elbe,” said West German diplomat Juergen Hrobog. “We could not therefore offer Poland and others membership in NATO.”

NATO has added 14 member states east of Germany since end of First Cold War, violating the Treaty of Belgrade.

Since the end of the First Cold War and the overthrow of the Soviet Union,14 countries in Central and Eastern Europe have joined the US-led NATO military alliance – all countries east of Germany, in flagrant violation of the promise not to expand.

In 1999, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland joined NATO.

In 2004, Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia joined as well.

In 2009, Albania and Croatia joined.

In 2017, Montenegro joined.

In 2020, North Macedonia joined.

NATO has also discussed the possibility of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, and Ukraine joining in the future.

A Request for Compromise

In December of 2021, the Russian Federation requested that NATO agree to a series of security guarantees, including a promise not to add any more members.

The United States and NATO rejected Moscow’s request to compromise, causing Russia to invade Ukraine shortly after.
