Putin threatens Nato with ‘World War 3’

Показать описание
Speaking after he declared victory in Russia’s sham presidential election, Vladimir Putin warned Nato against any move that would risk direct conflict with Russia, saying this would be “one step away from World War 3”.
Asked about the dangers of a wide scale Nato-Russia conflict, Mr Putin said: “Everything is possible in the modern world.”
It is only the latest example of Mr Putin dangling the threat of a larger, or even nuclear, conflict in Europe as he attempts to pressure Ukraine’s Western allies against an escalation of their involvement in his war.
