Nuclear Threat Misinformation Over The Ukraine – Russia War

On 21 September 2022, and to an extent, even on 22 September 2022, most of the international media flashed the statement of President Vladimir Putin that Russia “…will certainly make use of all weapon systems available to us. This is not a bluff.”

Some media reports also carried Putin’s remarks prefacing the above sentence “In the event of a threat to the territorial integrity of our country and to defend Russia and our people…”.

Both the sentences in combination convey a different meaning as against only the remarks threatening nuclear war.
