He claims that the west is using the threat of nuclear weapons to blackmail Russia, and that 'those who try to blackmail us with nuclear weapons should know that the weathervane can turn and point towards them'. Putin also said Russia would give its full support to the referendums announced for this weekend in Luhansk, Donetsk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia to join the Russian Federation.

Wow the madman is threatening the use of nuclear weapons, if he deploys nuclear weapon over a populated area It will mean suicide for putin and his people . The USA 🇺🇸 Great Britain 🇬🇧 France 🇫🇷 will launch a full retaliatory response on Russia . It will be a global catastrophe of epic proportions the world has never seen .

Yes to a point but... When something is as high stakes as nuclear annihilation bluffing/warnjng might be used. Russia might use it as a last resort. If everything is lost. The West is counting on a regime change. If there was a build up to such an event nuclear weapons might be used. Some might be less controllable than the West believe and might not go through such a beurocratic chain of command. A semi bluff can easily turn into a warning and an attack. There might be several rogue nuclear weapons Russia could utilize at short notice. Nothing is impossible. There might be other types of weapons too.

While his daughter lives in london, daughter of his press-secretary lives Paris, and children of Russian ministers live in USA, you should not be afraid of nuclear attacks on those cities

@Michael Griffiths Ukraine isn't 2000 times bigger than Russia but I get your point

[@bobbydowngrades]

Seems reasonable to say if you will attack us with something we would attack you back with the same thing. With an emotionless point of view that is.

[@crissw2471]

Except that he just annexed several regions of Ukraine and will now claim that the people within it are being "attacked". How is this reasonable?

He said he is not preparing an invasion, but he prepared an invasion. He said I am not attacking Ukraine, but he attacked Ukraine. He said he was not sending conscripts, but he sent conscripts. By now everybody should know, that when he says he is not bluffing, he IS bluffing.
