🇺🇸 Donald Trump
Germany Threatens Russia, The Russians Threaten To Use Nuclear Weapons, And Trump Threatens Iran With Annihilation
What happened
Germany's Chancellor Friedrich Merz warned of "major hybrid attacks" from Russia and stated that Germany will respond "swiftly and very clearly". Russia's President Vladimir Putin warned that if attacked, Russia will "respond" and may use nuclear weapons. US President Donald Trump threatened to hit Iran "very hard" if a link to the attempted plane hijacking is confirmed, and said that Iran will "either sign a very fair deal or they won’t exist any longer".
Why it matters
The escalating tensions between these countries raise concerns about the potential for a nuclear war. The situation is complicated by the fact that NATO and Russia are on a "fatal point of no return", according to Putin. The possibility of a nuclear war has never been closer than it is now.
