Putin orders nuclear forces on high alert | AFP

Russian President Vladimir Putin orders his defence chiefs to put the country's nuclear "deterrence forces" on high alert and accused the West of taking "unfriendly" steps against his country. International tensions are already soaring over Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and Putin's order will cause further alarm. Moscow has the world's second-largest arsenal of nuclear weapons and a huge cache of ballistic missiles which form the backbone of the country's deterrence forces.

Why is the US attacking Somalia on the same day, but no one or the media cares about them? I had to try to learn some other languages,
I was learning English, now I am learning Bahasa Malaysia and Chinese. Because I realized that watching only Western news would put me in an information cocoon!
