Is the danger of using nuclear weapons real: Do the mutual accusations of Ukraine and Russia have a deeper meaning?
Report of the Center for Geostrategic Studies
The conflict in Ukraine is still taking place at a high intensity, and there are indications that it could expand and grow into a larger, direct military conflict between Russia and NATO. Mass media recently published a lot of contradictory information regarding the potential use of nuclear weapons. Ukraine has accused Russia of making preparations for the use of nuclear weapons, and Russian officials reject such claims and emphasize that Russian intelligence services have obtained information that Ukraine is preparing a provocation that would activate a „dirty bomb“ and accuse Russia of it.
