"Dacă trebuie să lovim, vom lovi". Un parlamentar rus cere Moscovei să atace Ucraina cu arme nucleare

A senior Russian lawmaker has called for the use of nuclear weapons against Ukraine to force its surrender, dismissing any debate on the matter. Alexei Juravliov stated that Russia must strike decisively to ensure the enemy understands the need to capitulate. His comments come amid concerns in the US and Europe about potential escalation by President Putin, who is reportedly considering tactical nuclear options as a last resort. This rhetoric follows a visit by CIA Director John Ratcliffe to Moscow, aimed at persuading Putin to avoid further escalation and return to negotiations. Despite these threats, there is no evidence that Putin has decided to use nuclear weapons.
