The EU’s top diplomat said that the Russian military would be “annihilated” if Vladimir Putin launches a nuclear strike in Ukraine.
While the American public and other world leaders were promised that a Biden presidency would be a ‘return to normal’ in terms of foreign affairs, the 79-year-old Democrat made one of the most bellicose statements from any president in recent memory, warning of a looming ““We have not faced the prospect of Armageddon since [President] Kennedy and the [1962] Cuban missile crisis.
While most leaders seem content with the conflict escalating, French President Emmanuel Macron has been one of the few voices attempting to ratchet down the rhetoric, going so far as to say that he would not launch a retaliatory nuclear strike against Russia should Putin attack Ukraine with nukes. “Our doctrine is based on the fundamental interests of the Nation and they are very clearly defined. If there were a nuclear ballistic attack in Ukraine, these interests would not be called into question,” heMr Macron has been joined by former President Donald Trump in calling for negotiations to prevent a World War.
“With potentially hundreds of thousands of people dying, we must demand the immediate negotiation of the peaceful end to the war in Ukraine, or we will end up in World War III and there will be nothing left of our planet all because stupid people didn’t have a clue,” Trump“They really don’t understand … what they’re dealing with. The power of nuclear. They have no idea what they’re doing.”
