The Main Intelligence Directorate of the UA Ministry of Defense assesses the threat of Russia's use of tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine as
"very high"
This was reported by the representative of the GUR Vadim Skibitsky:
"The strikes will likely target areas along the front lines where there are a large number of personnel and equipment, as well as important command centers and critical infrastructure. To stop them, we need not only anti-aircraft, but also anti-missile systems"
What is most striking in the assessment is the probability of "very high". For those with little or no experience let me break this down for you and then take a look at the rest of the assessment.
Thread on interesting coincidence in regards to #NordStream2. As Malcom Nance says "coincidence takes alot of planning" I will not lay blame on any nation as there is much unknowns ATT. As another saying goes a lie travels halfway around the world before truth puts on its shoes.
2/ Not even 12 hours after the explosions of NS2, officials from ๐ฉ๐ฐ and ๐ต๐ฑ gathered in Szczecin Poland to inaugurate the #BalticPipe. Why is this important?
the Baltic Pipe will bring Natural Gas from ๐ณ๐ด to ๐ฉ๐ฐ and then ๐ต๐ฑ where is can be distributed across the ๐ช๐บ.
3/ The Baltic Pipe was first conceived after the 2014 annexation of Crimea. Poland saw NS2 as a danger to Europe and worked diligently to come up with an alternative to prevent energy blackmail by Russia, along with creating competition on the market to lower costs.
