Biden Warns About Nuclear ‘Armageddon’ Over Ukraine, First Time Since Cuban Missile Crisis

At a Democratic Party fundraising event in New York on Thursday night, President Joe Biden said that the world risks nuclear “Armageddon” for the first time since the Cold War and the Cuban missile crisis

“We have not faced the prospect of Armageddon since Kennedy and the Cuban missile crisis in 1962“, Biden said at the event. Putin is “not joking” when he threatens to use nuclear weapons, he added, and “we are trying to figure out what is Putin’s off-ramp. Where does he find a way out?”
