Proposals had been made to change Russia’s nuclear doctrine to allow for attacking any non-nuclear state that had the participation or support of a nuclear state, Putin said.

    I just dont get it. The man rules the world’s largest country by landmass and is richer than the richest people in the universe, what the fuck are you going to do with more land like Ukraine. More importantly, why do so many people have to die for it. And how the fuck are you so incapable of admiting being in the wrong that you threten to nuke the whole world. Why are people in power like this.

    Putin issues a nuclear warning #5285 to the West over Ukraine

    FTFY

    Also: why won’t you just let me play land grab and genocide? Why won’t you just let me fuck people over? Why won’t you just let me be a genocidal maniac when I want to? You’re all a bunch of party poopers!

    “I’m rubber, you’re glue. what you do bounces off me and sticks to you.”

    that’s basically what he said.

    what a desperate little bitch. he can’t win against a war with a well stocked and trained army so now he has to resort to threats he can barely deliver on.

    your threats are 1 out of 6 stars you basic bitch.

    I mean, the lesson here is to give Ukraine back the nukes we traded them in exchange for guarantees of territorial integrity in the Budapest memorandum.

    We failed, we did not protect your territory, we admit we failed.

    So have some nukes with irbms and TERs as a consolation prize.

    Damn putin, you sure outsmarted us…

      no tools

      Its the same thing with narc parents. They got nothing but the roof over your head so all day they make threats about it. They abuse the tiniest bit of power incessantly to create a dopamine skinner box of a life for themselves

    Ukraine is not attacking Russia. It’s a counter attack.

    Stopping those is easy with this 1 simple trick

          Ahh I’m sorry to waste your time, I know about them. I just meant to say “there’s more than one!”

          It’s hard to take joy from anything in this war, but seeing the Kremlin’s ammunition lighting up the sky with a thousand foot fireball, knowing it would save many Ukrainian lives, was incredible. Some of the craters in the satellite photos are very impressive.

            There were three in three or four days, though the first depot, at Toropets, was the most-significant.

            At least the first involved a substantial number of Ukranian long-range UAVs – I saw “about 100” quoted in coverage of it – and given that this current statement references large UAV or missile strikes and comes shortly after those, I guess that it might indeed be in response to those.

            EDIT:

            https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2024/09/18/russia-may-have-stockpiled-its-best-missiles-at-an-arsenal-in-the-town-of-toropets-which-is-why-ukraine-just-blew-it-up-with-100-drones/

            That so many of Russia’s best munitions were reportedly concentrated in a single location explains why Ukraine devoted such a large force to the attack. RBC-Ukraine claimed more than 100 drones were involved—potentially making the Toropets raid the biggest Ukrainian strike on a target inside Russia since Russia widened its war on Ukraine 30 months ago.

            and here:

            “The conditions for Russia’s transition to the use of nuclear weapons are also clearly fixed,” Putin said, adding that Moscow would consider such a move if it detected the start of a massive launch of missiles, aircraft, or drones against it.

              I hope the speculation about them hitting missiles is right. Much harder to replace them than artillery shells or small arms ammunition.
