Ukraine’s President, Volodimir Zelenski, stated on Friday that world leaders are “preparing” for the potential of Russia launching new nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons offensives.
In a recorded lecture for the Indonesian Foreign Policy Community (FPCI), Zelensky issued additional warnings regarding Russian President Vladimir Putin’s nuclear plans.
“Russian state propagandists openly threaten with nuclear weapons,” the Ukrainian president warned once more, believing that if the Kremlin takes that step firmly, “other states’ attitudes may change.”
“It may appear rational that diverse forces around the world acquire nuclear weapons if Russia engages in nuclear blackmail with impunity. It is an understatement to say that it is harmful for the entire planet “According to Ukrinform, he was adamant.
Shortly after President Putin ordered the first Russian tank to breach the Ukrainian border on February 24, Kiev warned of the prospect that the Kremlin would employ this form of weaponry, even decrying the use of chemical weapons in some of the war’s barracks.
Sergei Lavrov, Russia’s foreign minister, stated a month ago that the crisis in Ukraine poses a “serious risk” of escalating into a nuclear battle and World War III.
