“Give me Ukraine or I’ll destroy the whole world, including my own people”. Wow what a sane and rational leader you got there😮

[maximedamour]

We would like to remind Putin that he is more than welcome to pull his troops out of Ukraine.

[trueelectsupremea.m.mosttr]

He said they are there. Not he'd use them. Big difference.

[sbeast]

Praying for peace and love in the world 🙏

[nenekbot]

When he's afraid, he starts to speak about nuclear weapons. That's just how it works.

[Loveoldies]

Anyone who threatens to use nuclear weapons is insane!

[Randomynous]

Taken out of context, whhere is the rest of the speech

[TheTwangKings]

He forgot to mention the destruction of Russia.

[HughJassol_]

He's scared. This "war" of his has been going on two years. He said it'd be over "by winter". He's scared.

I don't understand how you are going to freeze somebody else property and then we allocated and give it to someone else is that even legal😂

[hinduspl]

Beside threats... What else he is capable of doing? Nothing.

[chri]

Ah Putin threatening nuclear war. Otherwise known as, Tuesday

[clayh]

Ben tells it like it is. That's why it's always smart to listen to a Military man that's been their and done that.

[brentlamadeleine]

I trust this voiceover translation less than I trust a fart after taco bell.

There is an old saying “Empty tin makes a lot of noise”.

[sebastiaanl]

So putin is playing Russian roulette with the gun pointed towards him? Nuclear war is like everyone standing in a swimming pool of gasoline and it don’t matter who trows the most matches… it’s suicidal thinking

[Yeshuahamashiacsampson]

Yes, we understand this loud and clear.
