Right now, our President is acting as if he wants to be remembered as the one who was ultimately responsible for starting WWWIII. He is a lame duck president, and his successor vows to end the war in Ukraine shortly after he enters office, so what does this man of dubious mental capabilities do? … he gives Ukraine permission to use American-made weapons to attack inside Russia.
Ukraine had long been seeking permission to use long-range weapons inside Russian territories, but Biden had remained opposed. Previously, Biden said he felt allowing U.S. missiles to be used on Russian territories could draw the United States and other NATO members into direct conflict with nuclear-armed Russia.
From Fox News:
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a revised nuclear doctrine on Tuesday stating that any attack on Russia supported by a country with nuclear power could be grounds for a nuclear response.
Putin signed the new policy on the 1,000th day of the war with Ukraine and the day after President Biden authorized Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied longer-range missiles to strike inside Russia.
The doctrine also states that Russia could respond to aggression against its ally Belarus with nuclear weapons, The Associated Press reported.
Though the doctrine doesn’t specify that Russia will definitely respond to such attacks with nuclear weapons, it does mention the “uncertainty of scale, time and place of possible use of nuclear deterrent” as key principles of deterrence.
It also contains a broader range of conditions that would trigger the use of nuclear weapons, noting that they could be used in response to an air attack involving ballistic and cruise missiles, aircraft, drones and other flying vehicles.
Today’s news in what could be the next step towards disaster … the U.S Embassy in Kyiv shuts over ‘potential significant air attack.’ The warning comes one day after Russia said that Ukraine used U.S.-made long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) to strike its territory.
“Out of an abundance of caution, the Embassy will be closed, and Embassy employees are being instructed to shelter in place,” a statement published on the embassy’s official website stated.
Come on, Joe, really?? Trying to increase the possibility of expanding this war just before you are ready to step aside.
Even Jimmy Carter did not try to start a war! Does this make any sense?
