Russia’s foreign minister told a Geneva disarmament meeting on Tuesday that Kiev has been seeking to acquire nuclear weapons, calling this a real danger that it needed to prevent. “Ukraine still has Soviet technologies and the means of delivery of such weapons,” Sergei Lavov told the Geneva-based Conference on Disarmament in a pre-recorded address. “We cannot fail to respond to this real danger,” he said.

At the same meeting, Ukraine’s foreign minister accused Russia of war crimes through its shelling of his country and called for a special meeting to address Russian aggression and weapons of mass destruction.Ruptly, a Russian state-owned news agency based in Berlin, is facing a staff exodus after President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine that is part of a broader contraction of Russia’s global news empire.

Employees complained about an all-staff call that they were being prevented from describing the invasion as such, amongst other editorial objections, according to a recording of the call heard by Reuters. Russia says its military deployment in Ukraine is a “special operation” and has cautioned local media to use that terminology.“All the words we’ve been using, they do not distort the reality in any way,” she said in the recording heard by Reuters.

These Russians noses are getting longer and longer can't the ANC see this

I other words nuclear weapons are good in the hands of Russia than Kiev.this guy you will be used til death ...

All his moves toward Ukraine are intimidating.They say Power is when you are respected for something you have not done.

Cuban missile in reverse.

Sometimes we confuse cowardice with bravery. This is the case with Putin. He is a coward on power with no strategy. If you analyse his Ukraine invasion was driven by fear and trying to make people think that he is powerful but he has exposed himself that he is a weak coward.

Sabc news. Your profile says you are not biased.

While Putin is busy threatening the world with the red button on his desk 🙄💔
