Putin's nuclear blackmail: NATO told how the Kremlin will respond to the supply of tanks to Ukraine

According to the Secretary General of the Alliance, Jens Stoltenberg, "nuclear rhetoric" of Russia is completely irresponsible and dangerous, although the risk of nuclear weapons is small. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has commented on the words of some politicians in Germany who fear the escalation of conflict with Russia through the supply of Ukraine's main LOOPARD combat tanks 2.

Against the background of statements in the Kremlin the threat of nuclear war, such deliveries can provoke nuclear escalation , although the Kremlin's "nuclear rhetoric" is quite dangerous. Stoltenberg reached this conclusion, answering the questions of Die Welt journalists. "The risk of nuclear weapons is small. But Russian nuclear rhetoric is completely irresponsible and dangerous. Russia must know that nuclear war cannot be won, and therefore cannot be waged," the Alliance Secretary General.

According to him, despite all the words of Russian politicians about the threat of nuclear escalation, Western allies are closely following the steps of Moscow and will not allow nuclear blackmail, because otherwise it would give rise to nuclear threat when Russia would like to achieve something.

On the other hand, the interests of NATO countries are that Ukraine survives as a sovereign and free state, otherwise leaders such as President Vladimir Putin may understand that they will be able to achieve their geopolitical goals through gross power. Stoltenberg believes that Putin should not get off the hands of the aggressive war against Ukraine, so the supply of heavy military equipment is absolutely necessary. "All of our security interests are to reach Ukraine.

Of course, most wars ends at the negotiating table. But what Ukraine can achieve during such negotiations is inextricably linked to the military situation. Therefore, if we want to want Ukraine has survived as a sovereign and free country, it is necessary to act now. More heavy equipment for Ukraine is simply necessary, " - summed up Stoltenberg.

We will remind, the deputy chairman of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev on January 19 stated that the defeat of Russia in a full -scale war with Ukraine provokes the beginning of nuclear war. According to him, nuclear powers did not lose great conflicts, on which their further fate depends. On January 24, Polish President Andrzej Duda urged Western leaders to give Ukraine a team of LEOPARD 2 tanks as a gift to repel a possible new offensive of Russian troops.
