The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has lasted for more than nine months, and the two sides still show no signs of peace talks or ceasefire. Even the previous winter predicted by experts that the conflict would stagnate, and the Russian and Ukrainian armies were still launching attacks on each other. According to the battle report released by the Russian Ministry of Defense on December 12, the Russian army repelled the Ukrainian attack on the Donetsk Pesky settlement on the same day, and also shot down two Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter jets and two Mi-8 armed helicopters.
On the same day, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces stated that the Ukrainian army blocked the Russian attack in four directions: bonus man , Bachmut, Avjeevka and Zaporoze, and attacked military targets such as the Russian command post. It is not difficult to see from this that Russia and Ukraine are still fighting fiercely.
At the same time, Western countries are still condemning and sanctioning Russia. Recently, British Defense Secretary Wallace said that if the Russian army continues to target civilian areas, the UK will consider providing long-range weapons to Ukraine. It is reported that since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Western countries have been avoiding providing long-range weapons to Ukraine in order to avoid retaliation from Russia.
Wallace's statement now shows that the UK's position has undergone subtle changes. In fact, the Pentagon's position on this matter has also changed recently. As the main force in providing military assistance to Ukraine, the United States has previously refused to provide long-range weapons to Ukraine.
Even before, media broke the news that in order to completely cut off the possibility of Ukrainian military using US weapons to attack Russia, it was transformed before providing Ukraine with multiple "Haimas" rocket launchers to Ukraine, so that it could not fire long-range rockets.
But just recently, sources revealed that the United States has revised its assessment of the threat of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and concerns about the result of the escalation of the conflict that led to direct military confrontation between NATO and Russia are gradually decreasing. Against this background, the Pentagon began to consider the possibility of providing long-range weapons to the Ukrainian army.
This means that the United States has actually acquiesced to the Ukrainian army to strike Russian mainland, and at the same time, Ukraine is threatening to strike Russian territory. Under this circumstance, once Ukraine obtains US-based long-range weapons, Russia is likely to be hit by the Ukrainian army.
Previously, Russia had issued a warning that if the Russian Federation territory was attacked, Russia would take all necessary measures to defend territorial security and sovereignty integrity. This means that the conflict will escalate in full, and there is even a possibility of an nuclear war against . , and after the United States changed its position, NATO also issued a warning.
It is reported that NATO Secretary-General Stoltenberg recently warned in an interview that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict may escalate into a full-scale war, a full-scale war between NATO and Russia. He believes that the most important thing at the moment is to avoid more European countries being involved and reduce the possibility of a full-scale war.
Stoltenberg's remarks are considered to be NATO's "ultimatum" to Russia, with the purpose of forcing Russia to negotiate with Ukraine, otherwise NATO will not prevent Ukraine from attacking Russian territory. But it should be noted that Russia has long warned Western countries that providing weapons to Ukraine would be considered a provocation to Russia.
Once Ukraine uses long-range weapons aided by Western countries to attack Russia's mainland, Russia will regard this as a Western country has launched an attack on it and will definitely retaliate against Western countries. In this way, the conflict will inevitably escalate into a full-scale war. Therefore, Stoltenberg's warning is not so much an "ultimatum" to Russia as a "death talisman" that drags NATO into the quagmire of war.
You should know that once the conflict between Russia and Ukraine escalates into a full-scale war, Russia will not rule out that it will use the nuclear weapon when sovereignty and territorial security are threatened. Recently, Putin also issued a warning that the threat of nuclear war in the world has intensified. Although Russia will not use nuclear weapons at will, it will regard nuclear weapons as a means of self-defense.
Putin's words are actually a warning to NATO and the United States, but at present it seems that NATO and the United States do not seem to be restrained, but instead have become increasingly tough in their attitude. It is necessary to remind NATO that once a full-scale war breaks out, no country will be a winner. I hope it will remain restrained, otherwise it will only play with fire and burn itself.
