“It would mean that Nato countries, the US, European countries, are at war with Russia,” he added. “If that’s the case, then taking into account the change of nature of the conflict, we will take the appropriate decisions based on the threats that we will face.”

Assuming that the implication here isn't that the appropriate decision would be "Russia's gonna pull out of Ukraine", and it's more "Russia is gonna use nuclear weapons", I expect that it can be added to this list:

A Timeline of Russia’s Nuclear Threats Against the West

I believe that that would be entry #96.

NATO: staying in Ukraine would put Russia 'at war' with NATO.

Considering your army can't take Ukraine, this really a fight you want to pick?

God, it really is the Russian religion that they're the only strong ones and everyone else is just so spoiled and weak, as your oligarchs tell you, from their mega yachts.

Too late, they already used GLMRS in the Kursk region. Guess we’re “at war” now. I’d argue that’s a laughable position for him to take given Russian agents have been sabotaging European infrastructure all over the place since Feb 22. Letting Ukraine defend itself shouldn’t be controversial.

Well Putin, if you don't want a war with NATO, you could always do the responsible thing and get the fuck out of Ukraine and stop launching illegal invasions of your neighbors.

Wait a seconds. Haven’t they said that they are at war with NATO at least since the started the full invasion?

Again? Wouldn't that be like the fifth War NATO would enter with Russia, according to Putin?

Doesnt this imply that, for Putin, Crimea and Donbas are not part of Russia? Those have been repeatedly hit by long range western missiles.

Maybe someone should inform the Russians living in those areas that their leader thinks less of them than other Russians.

They can't even handle Ukraine lol, can you imagine NATO?

Not to mention, Russia has been waging asymetric warfare tactics against NATO powers for years. If anything, it's that they haven't woken up to the nature of the conflict.

Sounds like a "final warning" to me

Negotiate the full deal to return Ukrainian, and exit peaceably. Run your stories in Russia "Ukraine successfully denazified, free and fair elections to be held" - "Ukrainian forces defeated at Russian border"...

...then go back to arresting democracy protestors, gay rights advocates, and your own alt-right talking heads... And try to keep your head on Vlad. Try to pick a successors, and a nice European country to retire to.

Somebody fucking call their bluff already

Touch the boats. Seriously. Try it. See what happens.

Putler makes veiled threats to use nuclear weapons.

Again. Dude isn't really impressing anybody anymore.

Lol. Ok. Let's see what little Vlad Puta calls "war". What a scared little bitch he is.

Another bluff. Also, we can just call it "special military operations".

Also, NATO includes Canada. Not just the US and European countries, like the article says.

Like the previous N times? 😴

Everyone is so afraid

"Vladimir Putin says..."

Aaand my brain switches off. Another red line.

Fucking bring it

Oh gosh, I am so scared. Another Russian red line.

NATO should at least shoot down missiles and drones which enter their sovereign airspace. Save Ukrainian lives and structures. Would also be actual experience of shooting down such actual enemy hardware in their own airspace. No simulation, no controlled environment. Would also train their AI for real.

Keep rattling that saber and it'll fall apart

You and what army?

Ok well I guess we're all going to be affected. I propose that blender thing for putin when they get him out of the smokey hole.

Let Ukraine use slightly longer range weapons than anything they can prove has been fired by Russia. Every escalation by Russia is permission to use the next tier of missiles to wipe them out.

Is that a shred of concern? Could he lose the war if longs range missiles were allowed?
