Putin is playing a nuclear card. Is it bluff?

Video of the day from February 24, the United States has not recorded any movements of tactical nuclear weapons, and the US administration has repeatedly opened it. Therefore, I believe that the United States has enough opportunities to continue providing military assistance to Ukraine, which has been a great success. Putin is crazy, and now he bluffs, playing a nuclear card. This is already an old and coming plate. The US should not retreat. Nothing has changed in terms of approach to Ukraine.

Today's situation - despite the clatter of Putin's saber - is no different from yesterday. Now, if the United States see the movement of Russian nuclear reserves, they must adhere to a twofold strategy. First, the administration must continue its policy of the sanctioned disclosure of intelligence data in order for the world to know what is happening. This will be done to unite the international community, to put serious pressure on Putin in order to retreat.

In particular, its "allies" China and India are not interested in using Russia's tactical nuclear weapons. In fact, at a recent meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in Uzbekistan, both countries insisted on the termination of the war by Putin, putting in the inconvenient position of a Russian dictator, who hoped for a strong demonstration of support. So if Putin begins to move his nuclear arsenal, the world will see that he is about to be a historically catastrophic path.

They will put huge pressure to retreat. At the same time, the US should also send a clear and unknown signal to Russia - preferably behind the scenes. The signal is: any use of tactical nuclear weapons will lead to immediate military intervention by NATO with the threat that the Alliance will completely destroy the Russian armed forces stationed in Ukraine.
