   "Russia says risks of nuclear war must be kept to minimum: TASS   
      
   Russia believes the risks of nuclear war should be kept to a minimum   
   and that any armed conflict between nuclear powers should be   
   prevented, according to the TASS news agency quoting a foreign   
   ministry official.   
      
   Vladimir Yermakov, the foreign ministry’s head of nuclear   
   non-proliferation, said all nuclear powers must stick to the logic   
   laid out in official documents aimed at preventing nuclear war.   
      
   Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Monday the West should not   
   underestimate the elevated risks of nuclear conflict over Ukraine,   
   although the US subsequently said it did not believe there was a   
   threat of Russia using nuclear weapons despite an escalation in   
   Moscow’s rhetoric."   
      
   Note the US couldn't give a shit about Putin's ramblings vis a vis   
   nuclear war.  Putin knows such a move by him will result in the   
   entirety of Russia converted into a glass parking lot - and the same   
   for all the countries which host his and his kleptocratic friends'   
   stolen billions.   
      
   And, Slider, Russia is going to lose this war in Ukraine.  It already   
   is losing.  30000 dead and counting.  Most of its tanks.  Running out   
   of troops and already, in occupied areas, partisan warfare is   
   starting.   
      
   Fuck Russia with broken glass.
