Bloomberg: Putin pregătește o escaladare a războiului din Ucraina

Russia is preparing to escalate attacks on Ukraine, believing peace negotiations have stalled. Sources indicate potential missile strikes on Kyiv and infrastructure targets. Moscow perceives Ukrainian attacks as NATO actions due to military support from member states. President Putin downplays the impact of Ukrainian strikes on the Russian economy, suggesting a response is imminent. The lack of diplomatic progress leaves Russia with few options but to escalate military actions. Concerns grow over the possibility of Putin considering tactical nuclear weapons as a last resort, although there are no current indications of such preparations.
