Vladimir Putin has his nuclear arsenal on ready after what he considered to be hostile remarks by NATO.
He has also warned that there will be consequences if Finland and Sweden join NATO.
NATO and the US have responded with severe sanctions including a SWIFT ban.
Putin has declared that such sanctions will be considered an act of war. https://www.skynews.com.au/world-news/united-states/putin-tells-biden-imposing-sanctions-will-be-seen-as-an-act-of-war/video/201c5d652d0575ebde26181c509fd641
And just in case you were wondering what could prompt a world leader to use a nuclear bomb...here was Truman's justification for Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
According to Wikipedia Truman's decision to order the dropping of the atomic bomb on Japan was based "largely on the desire to end the war quickly with the fewest number of casualties possible."
That, people of the world, would suggest that if a nuclear world leader is quite simply in the mood to use a nuke, they will. After all, when engaged in war, isn't it every leader's goal to end a war quickly and with the fewest number of casualties possible??
