• Russia says Ukraine war could go nuclear if West keeps sending weapons

    "Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine — Russia's Foreign Minister said Tuesday that if the U.S. and Ukraine's other Western allies continue to arm the country as it battles Moscow's invading forces, the risk of the war escalating into a nuclear conflict "should not
    be underestimated." In an interview with Russian TV, Sergey Lavrov said that by providing weapons, NATO nations were "pouring oil on the fire" and risking "World War III."

    He said the ongoing arms shipments to Ukraine meant NATO was "in essence engaged in war with Russia" already."

    Should U.S. and Ukraine's other Western allies heed Russia's warning?
    If not, why not?

    In the past month, Western allies did not heed Russia's warning to stop their supply of weapons to Ukraine. Hence, they not likely take heed of the warning again. Russia has to take further action in destroying those communal train network that was used
    in transporting of those shipped military weapons in Ukraine, instead. The US and allies have to bear responsibility for the supply of weapons and hence prolonging the Ukraine war from ending in Ukraine.
