The fear of a nuclear war has been fueled in Serbia for days, both by the tabloids and by the president. Will the intimidation of citizens lead to a demand for potassium iodide tablets, as was once the case in Croatia and Austria?
How far is the world from a nuclear war between Russia and the West? If you believe the Serbian tabloids, it's high time to pack your bags, stock up on food and run to some makeshift nuclear shelter. The reality, however, is a little different
Two weeks before the presidential election in Russia, Vladimir Putin delivers his State of the Nation Address. He warned that the West has forgotten what war means, and that it should keep in mind that Russia also has "weapons that can hit targets on their territory."
A possible nuclear attack by Russia on Ukraine would not threaten the fundamental interests of France, so in that case it would not respond with its atomic arsenal, the French president said, triggering a barrage of criticism.
There is no war goal big enough to justify the immediate death of tens and hundreds of thousands of people, and that is just one of the consequences of a nuclear explosion. Can we prepare for the end of the world and what would happen then?
As soon as the anti-vaxxer and anti-globalist protests ended, a new group appeared that refuses to be listed - the so-called "anti-listers". They sound like Prle and Tihi
After Vladimir Putin, the former president and prime minister of Russia even more explicitly threatens the use of strategic nuclear weapons. He says that Russia has chosen its path and there is no turning back
Countries from four continents are directly involved in the war in Ukraine, and almost the whole world is indirectly affected. It is a world war, except that it is not the Third World War that generations have feared. Still
Concerns about nuclear arsenals have been brought up again by the war in Ukraine and the clanking of doomsday weapons. On the thin border of the conflict are Russia and the USA, which have 90 percent of the 13.080 nuclear warheads in the world today. Both the American and Russian protocols on the activation of strategic nuclear capacities provide that the decision on this is made exclusively by the president of the state. In the event that the President of Russia is unable to respond to a nuclear strike, the "Dead Hand" system automatically recognizes him and launches a counterstrike.
Foreign Ministers of Russia and Ukraine, Sergey Lavrov and Dmytro Kuleba, met on Thursday morning in Antalya. There was no progress. They repeated the previous demands and expanded the list of accusations. Everything is happening at a dangerous speed where all three parties first react and then think about the consequences
The battle for Europe's largest nuclear power plant led to a fire that was quickly put out. There was no radiation leak in Zaporizhzhia, but the fear spread across the continent this March morning, which will affect the further course of war conflicts in Ukraine.
On the afternoon of Sunday, February 27, Russian President Vladimir Putin put the nuclear command of the Russian Federation on "alert status" and raised the "deterrent force" to the mode of "combat alertness", i.e. combat readiness. In accordance with the "doctrine of assured mutual destruction". and the U.S. armed forces have raised their combat readiness proportionately puzzling that the West ignores it to such an extent
Kiev gave up its nuclear arsenal after the collapse of the USSR. The USA, the Russian Federation, Great Britain and Ukraine signed the "Budapest Memorandum" in 1994, which included the obligations that the great powers will have towards Ukraine after it gets rid of its bombs, primarily the protection of Ukrainian sovereignty. When Russia annexed Crimea in 2014, Washington announced that the Budapest Memorandum was not actually legally binding.
In the fall of 1962, the world watches helplessly as a Cold War nuclear poker game in which the chip equals one megaton of trinitrotoluene. The Soviet government is secretly building bases in Cuba and deploying missiles with nuclear warheads within range of Washington and half of the US strategic bomber bases. US President John F. Kennedy rejects military pressure to bomb Cuba immediately and orders a naval blockade. American bombers are in the air. Russian ships are approaching the blockade line of which they were not informed... Exactly half a century has passed since the thirteen-day Cuban missile crisis in October 1962, when atomic Armageddon was narrowly avoided, the last battle before the end of the world
