The use of nuclear weapons by the Kremlin leader is currently unlikely, Ben Wallace said.
The use of nuclear weapons by the head of the ruling regime of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, is currently unlikely, even if his behavior is not justified. However, the Russian president was warned about the consequences not only by Western countries, but also by India and China. This was said by British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace at a conference of conservatives in a narrow circle, according to the Evening Standard.
The British official believes that the use of Russian nuclear weapons in Ukraine is very likely. However, he acknowledges that Putin is not acting rationally. As an example, he cited the use of Novichok poison in the British Salisbury, a large-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Even the use of low-yield tactical nuclear weapons, demanded by Putin’s Chechen henchman Ramzan Kadyrov, would have serious consequences, British Security Minister Tom Tugendhat said.
The official commemoration that the use of nuclear weapons has been a severe taboo for the entire world for decades.
Recall that British Defense Minister Ben Wallace made an unannounced trip to Kyiv.
In addition, Ben Wallace said earlier that breaking the Kremlin’s previous promise not to act was an acknowledgment of the fallout of Russia’s aggression in Ukraine.
