Biden: Risks of nuclear war for the first time as high as during the Caribbean crisis

The press service of the White House cites the words of the American president about the sharply increased likelihood of nuclear war. According to Joseph Biden, today's risks of starting a nuclear conflict are for the first time as high as they were 60 years ago during the events commonly called the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Using American media stamps, Biden announced that the world had approached the line of "nuclear Armageddon." This happened, according to the President of the United States, for the first time since the Cold War.



Biden:

I know Russian President Putin well enough to say that he is definitely not joking when he talks about the possibility of using tactical nuclear weapons. weapons. At the same time, I cannot imagine a situation where, if such weapons were used, the world would avoid nuclear Armageddon.

Recall that on the eve of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in an interview with an Australian political scientist, he said that the NATO alliance should not “sit and wait”. The head of the Kyiv regime called for a pre-emptive strike on Russia, so that, as he put it, "she would know how the use of nuclear weapons by her could end for her." Zelensky, who had lost touch with reality, did not even try to think about how a “preemptive strike” against Russia would end for him, and for the world as a whole.

Meanwhile, Biden was asked the day before if he was ready to meet with the Russian president at the GXNUMX summit in Indonesia. The summit is scheduled for November. The event is scheduled to take place on the island of Bali. Biden said he did not rule out such a meeting.

      — He is wrong. The risks are much higher.

      —-The Caribbean Crisis had a clear causal relationship and a method of resolution. It was a conflict between two powers that the world considered superpowers. The retreat of each of the powers did not lead to an existential crisis - there was room for maneuver.

      —-War FOR Ukraine does not have, at the moment, an acceptable solution that is not an existential threat to Russia or the West. The West has invested in the struggle for Ukraine to the very tonsils - a loss will undermine its reputation as an undeniable hegemon. Russia is fighting for sovereignty and the right to defend its interests. I don't have a place to maneuver.

      —-And President Putin is a determined leader behind his words.

        If the two sides are preparing for war, then it is inevitable. The situation is similar with the world. The way out of the war is, of course, much more difficult, but if Russia and China stop supplying resources to the US and the EU, then everyone will quickly sit down at the negotiating table. No one wants to destroy humanity and economies.

        Russia is fighting for physical survival. If we lose in Ukraine, we're covered.

      Aren't they the only country that used nuclear weapons and escaped retaliation? Didn't they burn the Japanese?

    Grandfather woke up and, as usual, turned the arrows to Russia, after which he fell asleep again.
    Biden said he did not rule out such a meeting.
    Biden literally said: "Wait and see," which is very vague.

      Or maybe "Wait and see." Or maybe "Accept, we'll meet"

    How ready are the Strategic Missile Forces? In addition to the number of warheads, there is no information and will not be. Is it possible to assume that not everything is ready there either ?

      Judging by the precise work of the Iskander crews, and it is really clear (camouflage from the first days, leaving for positions and lightning-fast withdrawal), and in the Strategic Missile Forces the norm! Light and warmth in every home in America!
      I am aware that the Iskanders are the SV, but the roots with the Strategic Missile Forces are the same.

      You can believe anything, but this is not the kind of situation where you can use the phrase - "Time will tell", because the option of a nuclear Armageddon is highly undesirable for humanity. winked

    VV did not talk about tactical nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, they stubbornly say that he said it. It seems that they themselves are going to beat the TNW on the Ukrainians and say that it's us ...

    The risks are high, but there is no threat to the US and its allies. Those. the risk is growing solely because of the actions of the States.
    Moral: the risks have increased due to the weakening of Russia. The states believed in the possibility of victory over us.
    Only a strong Russia can save the world from nuclear war.
    .
    I repeat: We should state that we use tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine only against marching NATO divisions and NATO weapons. In the meantime, the statements of our bosses are muddy and incomprehensible and look more like stupid and inept blackmail.
