“There would be no winners in a nuclear war and no such war should ever be started,” says Putin.

A nuclear war “should never be unleashed” and warned any such conflict would have “no winners.”

“We proceed from the fact that there can be no winners in a nuclear war and it should never be unleashed, and we stand for equal and indivisible security for all members of the world community,” said Putin in a letter to participants of a conference on the nuclear nonproliferation treaty (NPT).

International concern about the risk of a nuclear confrontation has heightened since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24th.

In a speech at the time, Putin warned against outside powers attempting to interfere.

“Whoever tries to hinder us … should know that Russia’s response will be immediate. And it will lead you to such consequences that you have never encountered in your history,” he said.

The war in Ukraine has raised geopolitical tensions to levels not seen since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.

Russia claims the West is waging a “proxy war” by arming the Ukraine and imposing sanctions on Moscow.

CIA director William Burns said in April, “none of us can take lightly the threat posed by a potential resort to tactical nuclear weapons or low-yield nuclear weapons.”

Russia’s military doctrine allows for the use of nuclear weapons in the event of an existential threat to the Russian state.

The Risk for World War III is Very Real…

International concern about the risk of a nuclear confrontation has heightened since Russia invaded the Ukraine on February 24th.

“The prospect of nuclear conflict, once unthinkable, is now back within the realm of possibility,” said United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in March.

Politicians in both Russia and the United States have spoken publicly of the potential reality of World War III.

Boris Johnson is preparing for WW3

A few months ago, General Sir Patrick Sanders of Britain outlined the challenges facing the military after the Russian invasion, stressing the “imperative” need to build an army that could defeat Russian troops.

“There is now a burning imperative to forge an army capable of fighting alongside our allies and defeating Russia in battle,” said Sir Patrick, who took over as the army’s chief from Gen Sir Mark Carleton Smith on Monday.

The general’s comments followed former Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s warning that “we need to steel ourselves for a long war” ahead.

Mr. Johnson, who met with President Zelensky in Kyiv on Friday, said that the Russian invasion is “entering a new phase” and, if its military is successful, President Vladimir Putin “would not stop at dismembering Ukraine”.

LONDON WILL BE BOMBED FIRST…

If World War III erupts, London would be bombed first as the potential NATO target, according to a close ally of Vladimir Putin.

CIA director William Burns said in April that given the setbacks Russia had suffered in Ukraine, “none of us can take lightly the threat posed by a potential resort to tactical nuclear weapons or low-yield nuclear weapons.”

Russia, whose military doctrine allows for the use of nuclear weapons in the event of an existential threat to the Russian state, has accused the West of waging a “proxy war” against it by arming Ukraine and imposing sanctions on Moscow.

Now, Boris Johnson is expected to be Chief of NATO after resigning from his role as Prime Minister of U.K.
