Josep Borrell suggests Putin ‘cannot afford bluffing’ and says those backing Ukraine — including NATO and the US — ‘are not bluffing neither’
BRUSSELS — EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell warned Moscow on Thursday that its forces would be “annihilated” by the West’s military response if Russian President Vladimir Putin uses nuclear weapons against Ukraine.
“Putin is saying he is not bluffing. Well, he cannot afford bluffing, and it has to be clear that the people supporting Ukraine and the European Union and the Member States, and the United States and NATO are not bluffing neither,” Borrell said at the opening of a Diplomatic Academy in Brussels.
“Any nuclear attack against Ukraine will create an answer, not a nuclear answer but such a powerful answer from the military side that the Russian Army will be annihilated,” Borrell added.

The Politicians fear a Recession more than they fear Nuclear Armageddon.
Keep ratcheting up the rhetoric.
Yes let’s sacrifice our civilization and hundreds of millions of lives in a possible nuclear war for what is the 2nd most corrupt nation in Europe.
It was THE most corrupt nation in Europe in 2015, Russia has passed them since then so they hold the numbers 1 and 2 spots now.

How many divisions Borrel has?
If you’d look into the background of these loons you wonder how did they make into their positions.
Borrel is a failed stock trader sentences for insider trading at the time, von der Leyen is a gynecologist, Baerbock is an athlete who plagiarized her master’s thesis and so on.
and Putin is a KGB thug
What they are describing is a conflict in which one side (Russia) would have already explicitly demonstrated a real-world use of nuclear weapons against an enemy. And they plan to counter that with ... tanks?
Talk about bringing a knife to a gun fight.
Better a KGB thug than a bumbling idiot.
What military does Josep Borrell command?
Yet if Josep Borrell has to resort to double negatives, it must be series.
It appears that Ukraine is operating something like 15 nuclear reactors.
No one is talking about it. Would opening them up to the winds be a “nuclear weapon”? I think it would be for Ukraine, and the hysterical talk is to make the world see it that way -no matter how it happens.
The big question is ‘do we have a mine shaft gap?’
The KGB thug can be killed with a single bullet vs. what, nuclear weapons flying?
He will either die and lose or lose and die. The first requires only one death. The latter millions. Either way he is dead. He is not coming out of this.
Knuckleheads in EU can’t send Ukraine much but 1950s refurbished in 1992 tanks and here they are out there making threats as though Russia is going to use nukes and they are going to fire back with burning spitballs.
Their threats must be because NATO needs to use nukes because they are all outta firepower.
Who and why is going to do it? Do you realize that Putin enjoys a popularity of over 80% and it is growing the more his enemies are pushing?
