Russia Warns Ukraine Joining NATO Would Spark World War III

Russia has warned the U.S. and its allies against allowing Ukraine to join NATO. This morning,
a member of Russia’s Security Council told Russian state media, “Kyiv is well aware that such
a step would mean a guaranteed escalation to a World War III.” The comments came as officials
from 50 countries, including all 30 NATO members, met in Brussels, where they pledged to step
up arms shipments to Ukraine, including new air defense systems. Following the talks,
U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was asked about Russia’s threats to use nuclear weapons.

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin: “Putin’s saber-rattling is reckless — nuclear saber-rattling
is reckless and irresponsible. We don’t expect to see and hear that kind of behavior from a
major nuclear power, and so that’s very dangerous. And you’ve heard a number of leaders
around the world emphasize that.”

Austin’s comments come just days after Poland’s president said he’s open to stationing
nuclear weapons on Polish soil and has discussed the idea with the United States.

Personal note(s):
-
Putin has dug his own ditch and he knows it. The issues with NATO are driving
him nuts. He started this crap - and he could finish it - but he will not show any
weakness - other than being an absolute winner. This attitude will only cause
his People to suffer a nuclear war they don't want a nuclear - nor do his neighbors.
-
Putin's got a personal grudge against the USA & NATO - and anyone else that
wants to break from his so called membership. He could have saved many of
his country men from being slaughtered and a lot of grief by working with the
League of Nations rather than trying to bury them.
-
Many in the Russian government don't want a nuclear war - nor should they
persecute or threaten their surrounding border nations.
-
This is a (Putin) personal problem - of his own making. The world isn't ready
for his type threatening mannerisms. He has to realize he can be replaced -
and another come in - and make Russia a country to be proud of. Rather
then irritating and threatening.
-
He's destroyed much of the gains he could've had - but his power struggle has
shown a different side to his people. Because of his recent past history. HIs
strongarm tactics won't fly - rational workmanship can produce significant gains
and world peace. China knows this they don't want a nuclear war. But his buddy
Kim in North Korea is as insecure as Putin.
-
He's old wood - and bitter - because of his past - and has an hard core attitude.
There's no humanity left in him or in Kim! Personal gain and showmanship
will be their downfall - and many will suffer from their world positions which
is damning and unwanted.
-
World peace is still in reach - but having nuclear weapons is not the answer.
They haven't learned that yet.
-
This world will cease to exist if an all nuclear exchange was to happen.
-
It's bad enough as it is - all around the globe of late - but to add to its
misery - such as Putin seems likely to entertain - will only result in a
world-wide catastrophic ending & mass killing of many innocent bystander's.
-
Countries like this don't need leaders such as Putin & Kim and a few more
around the globe. They are evil and discontent - and don't deserve the
titles they hold. Slaughtering your neighbor's because they won't
kowtow to their wishes or request for peace - rather than war. You guy's
have a real death wish - your not leaders - you're butcher's and madmen.
-
What's rule? - Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely! (It's been written
in the past - and so it remains - to very day). That's pretty sad!
