Ex-CIA director says using nuclear weapons in Ukraine would lead to catastrophe

  • President Joe Biden’s stark warning that the world faces the highest prospect of nuclear war in 60 years was not based on any new intelligence about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s intentions or changes in Russia’s nuclear posture, multiple US officials told CNN.
    The US still has seen no evidence that Putin is moving toward using Russia’s nuclear capability, nor is there any intelligence showing he’s decided to do so. But Biden’s comments, laid out in starker terms than other US officials have used to date, reflected heightened concerns inside his administration about the risk of Russia carrying out a nuclear strike in Ukraine, where Russian forces have recently faced a string of defeats.
    Former CIA Director Leon Panetta gives his reaction to CNN's Erin Burnett.

    I think much of what I’ve seen on this question misses the real danger. The use of nuclear weapons in war has fallen under a taboo that for the first time in the history of warfare, has worked. Nuclear weapons have not been used in anger since 9 August 1945. If it happens again, Pandora’s box is open, and it may come to be seen as just another weapon in a nation’s arsenal.

    Such a move will wreck the things China cares about most: world markets, trade, China's reputation as a Russian partner, stability and harmony in society (recall they are already having Covid problems and chaos internally), and other problems too, such as fallout raining down and causing panic, food and water hoarding, and so on in China.
    India is in a similar boat, and that doesn't begin to talk about the EMP from such an attack, that could extend into EU and NATO nations, poision air and water, and also affect Russia too.

    A nuke's radiation would also affect neighbouring countries. It would be a de facto declaration of war on Europe, and draw the appropriate response.

That younger generation whose aspirations for the future will be suddenly truncated. In contrast, people in their late seventies or eighties have little time left anyway. So a nuclear war would just bring something that they have been seriously contemplating or expecting at any moment-death. Putin himself, and many of his top supporters have already lived their lives. So it's understandable that they view things much differently from those who haven't.
