“Russia’s threat to apply nuclear weapons – this is part of the wet intimidation policy. In fact, the Kremlin is far from the thought of using a nuclear or other weapon of mass lesion,” said HaqQin.az Analyst Analyst of the American Foundation Jacissian Vladimir Sokor.
In his opinion, Putin is sure (and perhaps not without reason) that Western politicians seriously perceive the threats of atomic war and are afraid that Moscow will go to the use of tactical nuclear weapons. In reality, nuclear blackmailing of the Kremlin is the purest political bluff, hiding behind which Russia seeks to seize the Ukrainian territories.
According to the American political scientist, the Kremlin aggression can only stop the “duplex” of the effective actions of the Ukrainian army in combination with total economic sanctions of the West.
“On the fields of battles in Ukraine, they may be a patery situation when fighting will gradually accept positional nature,” said Vladimir Sokor. “In this case, Ukraine will have to negotiate under intense bombing and rocket shelling, in the context of the destruction of their infrastructure and the presence of Russian troops. In a number of Ukrainian cities … “.
The political analyst emphasizes that successful response strikes of the Ukrainian army surpassed the most optimistic expectations of the world community.
“I will not hide,” Sokor admits, “the brilliant military training and the highest motivation of the Ukrainian army also became a complete surprise. But the problem is that Western politicians still do not want NATO to participate in the war, which naturally , I do not suit the president of Zelensky. Western countries are trying to avoid deliveries to Ukraine some types of weapons, for example, tanks, fighters, air defense radius, etc. and all this – due to reluctance to get involved in direct conflict with Russia. I believe, Zelensky Put western countries in an extremely uncomfortable position, saying that Ukraine needs not Western military, but weapons of the West to fight themselves with the Russians. Thus, the President of Ukraine demonstrated the world’s cowardice of Western politicians … “
On the other hand, Sokor believes, the West will not become infinity to “sit in the trenches of diplomacy”, since, threatening the use of tactical nuclear weapons, Russia may well annex the Baltic States. And if in the war in Ukraine, NATO has a significant scope for maneuver, there is nothing like that in the Baltic States. That is, if the Army of Russia will go through the same Lithuania or Latvia, even 50 kilometers, these states will lose a significant part of their territory. And when NATO, in accordance with the charter of the North Atlantic bloc, will send his troops to protect the republics of the Baltic States, then the consolidated army of the Western world will have to maneuver on a narrow space between the Russian troops and the Baltic Sea.
