Peace activists wearing masks of Russian President Vladimir Putin (L) and newly elected US President Joe Biden pose with mock nuclear missiles in front of Berlin’s landmark the Brandenburg Gate on January 29, 2021 in an action to call for more progress in nuclear disarmament.

President Joe Biden wants the American public to start their weekend with dread.

The risk of nuclear destruction is at its highest point since 1962, according to Biden. The president said that recent threats and rhetoric from Putin was the main reason for the apocalyptic forecast.

Biden said that since Kennedy and the Cuban Missile Crisis, we have not faced armageddon. Biden said he didn't think the Russian president was joking when he said he would deploy nuclear or chemical weapons. The U.S. president warned against using the word "tactical" to refer to Russia's atomic weapons.

The ability to use a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with armageddon is not something that Biden thinks is possible.

Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Putin has indicated a willingness to use tactical nuclear weapons. The U.S. and European nations were told by Putin that he wasn't bluffing about using nukes.

All available means will be used to protect Russia and its people. The Russian president said according to the news agency. The weathervane can point towards those trying to blackmail us with nuclear weapons.

Intelligence services in the U.S. increased efforts to surveil Russian communications and military movements as a result of those threatening threats. According to sources, Russia relies on a number of smaller nuclear weapons that can be loaded onto aircraft. Predicting the next move is more difficult because of exchangeability.

There are signs that countries outside of Russia are getting ready to use nuclear weapons. According to The Guardian, the Polish president asked the U.S. to move some of its nuclear weapons into his country. According to the Center for Arms Control and Non- Proliferation, the U.S. has maintained nuclear arms in Europe since the 1950s in countries like Germany, Italy, and Turkey. There is a chance that Polish pilots could be trained to carry out missions with U.S. nuclear weapons. The White House told The Guardian that it was unaware of Poland raising the issue.
