Putin varoittaa: Venäjä on valmis ydinsotaan

Putin julisti lännen suuntaan Venäjän olevan teknisesti valmis ydinsotaan ja uhkasi käyttää ydinasetta, jos USA lähettää joukkoja Ukrainaan.

Venäjän presidentti Vladimir Putin varoitti länttä keskiviikkona, että Venäjä on teknisesti valmis ydinsotaan ja että jos Yhdysvallat lähettää joukkoja Ukrainaan, seurauksena voi olla katastrofi. Putin antoi laajan haastattelun Venäjän RIA-uutistoimistolle ja Rossiya-1-valtiolliselle televisiolle, vain muutama päivä ennen maaliskuun 15.-17. päivän vaaleja. Presidentti totesi toivovansa, että Yhdysvallat välttäisi eskalaation, joka voisi johtaa ydinsotaan. Vaikka Venäjällä on nähty vastarinnan merkkejä, monet tukevat silti presidentti Putinia vaaleissa. Putin on korostanut olevansa valmis käyttämään ydinaseita, mikäli Venäjän itsenäisyys ja valtionmuoto ovat uhattuina. Hänen mukaansa Venäjä on täysin valmis ydinsotaan, mutta nykytilanteessa kaikki ei kiirehdi siihen.

Vaikka Putin on lähes varma voitostaan presidentinvaaleissa, on mainittu sota-väsymys, vaalitekninen insinöörintyöskentely ja äärimmäinen riskittömyys, mikä viittaa siihen, että Kremliä hieman jännittää vaalien lähestyminen. Ilmastonmuutoksen kannalta Venäjällä on ollut huono menestys, kun Putinin kaudella maan päästöt ovat jatkaneet kasvuaan ilman kunnianhimoisia tavoitteita siirtyä fossiilisista polttoaineista. Putin on myös korostanut, että Venäjä vaatii turvatakuita neuvotteluissa Ukrainan konfliktin ratkaisemiseksi.
