British publications, citing their sources, say that the West is trying to calm the population against the backdrop of nuclear escalation.
Western officials are secretly working on an action plan in the event of a possible Russian nuclear strike on Ukraine. Governments are determined to prevent panic in their countries. This was reported by The Guardian, citing a source.
According to media reports, Western officials are reviewing plans to provide emergency support and reassure a population fearful of nuclear proliferation. However, the publication notes that the West considers a nuclear crisis unlikely.
The newspaper noted that public awareness campaigns and school exercises on how to survive nuclear war were characteristic of the Cold War era. In particular, the so-called Crouch and Cover campaigns (Duck and Cover) in the US in the 1950s, Everyone Has a Chance (Everyone has a chancelisten)) in West Germany in the early 1960s, Protect and Live (Protect and Survive) in the UK in the late 1970s.
The Secretary General of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Kate Hudson, said the current “careful planning” stems from the Protect and Survive campaign.
