West Terrified After Putin Nuclear Talk, Cites Hiroshima & Nagasaki by Uptownerd: 9:29am On Nov 07, 2022


Vladimir Putin invoked Hiroshima talks in chat with French President, Emmanuel Macron.

The Russian President's remarks about Hiroshima and Nagasaki nuclear bombings has alarmed Western Europe and USA. Putin cited the bombings in a recent phone call with Macron.

According to findings credited to Daily Mail, the Russian President is quoted as citing the devastation there, and reminded that - 'you don't need to attack major cities to win'.

In 1945, the United States dropped a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima after earlier threatening to do so; days later, they attacked Nagasaki, effectively forcing Japan to surrender in the second world war.

shocked

Putin meant that he can nuke Eastern Ukraine not necessarily Kyiv and the war will end .
Reason he referenced the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan by USA.
It doesn’t matter if a city is nuked . A bombing in the villages will have same effect as that in the city.

putin is simply saying dat US set a precedent by the nuking of Japan, after that the US was feared by many nations, it became clear US was a super power, that fear brought about the cementing of US hegemony, Putin wants to weaponize fear, t set a precedent to instill fear, panic among European rivals, to consolidate on russians intention at a takeover
