“I don’t think Putin will use nuclear weapons.” News headlines and events Last Minute Russia

President Joe Biden said he does not consider Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to suspend participation in the New START nuclear weapons treaty as a statement that Putin is considering using nuclear weapons.

“That would be a big mistake. This would not be a responsible act. But I don’t see this as a possibility of using nuclear weapons,” Biden said in an interview with ABC News.

Putin announced this week that he had decided to suspend the New START arms control agreement, which limited the number of nuclear warheads between Russia and the United States, reached in 2010, and said Moscow could start nuclear testing.

However, Russia has said it will abide by the agreed limits on nuclear missiles and keep the United States informed of their deployment despite the suspension of the agreement.

Asked if Russia’s ending the deal would make the world a less safe place, Biden said: “Look, I think we’re in a more insecure situation when we’re pulling out of arms control agreements that are in the interests of both parties and in the interests of the world.”

But Biden added that this does not indicate a change in Russia’s nuclear position.

“There is no evidence to support the idea that this means they are considering using nuclear weapons or are considering using ICBMs,” Biden said.

US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken yesterday called Russia’s announcement “unsuccessful and irresponsible” and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg urged Putin to reconsider the issue, saying his decision made the world a more dangerous place.
