TheUSA should be wary of the risk of even a limited nuclear war over Ukraine. This was reported on December 7 by the publication 19FortyFive.

"Indeed, it is reasonable to assume that Moscow is trying to make it very clear, directly and openly clear that the United States has crossed a red line," the publication emphasized.

According to the piece, Russia has more operationally deployed tactical nuclear weapons than the United States, and U.S. President Joe Biden 's lifting of restrictions on Ukraine's use of ATACMS has resulted in an unacceptable risk to American national security without benefiting the United States.

"Simply put, it is not in America's interest to risk even a limited nuclear war <...> over Ukraine," the publication summarized.

Earlier, on November 25, U.S. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green, commenting on media reports that the administration of current President Joe Biden is seriously considering transferring nuclear weapons to Ukraine, called it a crazy idea. She suggested that it was an excuse to stop the transfer of power to President-elect Donald Trump.

At the same time, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel called Russia's nuclear capabilities frightening. She also called on Western countries to do everything possible to prevent a nuclear conflict.

Russian President Vladimir Putin approved an updated nuclear doctrine on November 19. It includes the amendments announced in September. In particular, for the first time a definition of a potential adversary against whom the Russian Federation is conducting nuclear deterrence is introduced.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov specified that the measure brings the norms in this area in line with the current situation. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov also noted that Russia is strictly committed to the position of preventing nuclear war and defends a world in which nuclear weapons should never be used.
