Defense One: Concern Rising That Putin Could Use Nuclear Weapons
Russian “escalate to de-escalate” doctrine suggests Putin is thinking the unthinkable.
The world should take Russia’s escalating nuclear threats very seriously, senior intelligence officials told lawmakers Tuesday, while noting that they have not yet seen clear indications that Russian leader Vladimir Putin would respond to military setbacks in Ukraine with nukes.
Putin sparked alarm among nuclear watchers last month when he ordered the country’s nuclear forces be put on a “special regime of combat duty.”
Speaking to lawmakers on Tuesday, Avril Haines, the director of Office of the Director for National Intelligence, said that move was mostly “signaling” to keep NATO from intervening in Ukraine.

WNU Editor: These top US intelligence officials are voicing what this blog has been warning about since the start of the war. Russia will use a tactical nuclear weapon (or more) in Ukraine if the conflict enters a stalemate or Kremlin goals are not going to be successful.

Another mistake for Putin. He may be "unelected" in Russia. I'm seeing a generation gap beginning and starting wars with one's neighbor is not on the younger peoples' minds.
If Russia does that to Ukraine's front yard it needs to be done to Russia's front yard.
Eye for an eye.
I think it's on that armored train that's in Ukraine.💥
Good reason to personally smuggle Polish MIGs into Ukraine. After 4 years of Trump, looks like the globalists might finally get another war, this time maybe even a nuke war. Added boner, I mean bonus.
More fear porn to keep us nicely on edge. I wouldn't put it past politicians to detonate 1 or 2 nukes on populated areas anywhere on the planet to scare the crap out of the rest of us. Once this crises is over, it's only a matter of time before the globalists set in motion a phoney baloney alien invasion of earth at some point in the future. Keep ducking 🙈
