The Russian Nuclear Danger

What Russia Says About Nuclear Weapons And What It Means, with Robert Seely PhD MP and Colonel Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, 19fortyfive March 14, 2023. "Russian President Vladimir Putin’s regime has consistently signaled that the Ukraine War could trigger Moscow’s use of nuclear weapons. After a lull in threats toward the end of last year, possibly due to China exerting its influence over the Kremlin, those threats are on the rise again. At the end of February, former Russian leader Dmitry Medvedev said the world faces a nuclear apocalypse if the West continues to arm Ukraine with advanced weaponry."

Putin's Martyr Complex and Russia's WMDs

The U.S. and Its Allies Must Understand and Respond to Russia’s Nuclear Threats, with Robert Seely PhD MP and Colonel Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, Heritage Foundation Backgrounder #5373. "Vladimir Putin’s dreams of Ukraine re-incorporated into Russia, of breaking up NATO, and of Russia leading a global anti-Western alliance are collapsing about him. Disaster for Russia’s imploding armed forces may well await, and, eventually, Ukraine’s armed forces will likely threaten to break Russia’s land corridor linking Crimea to the Donbas. At that point, Putin will make one of the most fateful decisions of the century: to use nuclear or chemical weapons or not. The U.S. must minimize that threat and ensure the protection of the American public and of U.S. allies."
