The possibility of Vladimir Putin to make limited use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine, said high-ranking Kremlin talking to Bloomberg.
According to the American media, some said that they share more and more the fear expressed by the officials of the US intelligence services that Putin could turn to the limited use of nuclear weapons if faced with a failure in his “military operation”, as the Russian President calls it
Nearly eight weeks after sending troops to Ukraine, with military casualties rising and Russia facing unprecedented international isolation, the number of high-ranking Kremlin officials challenge his decision to go to war is growing.
The ranks of critics at the top of power remain limited, distributed in high-level positions in government and state-owned enterprises. They believe the invasion was one catastrophic mistake that will bring the country back for years, according to ten people with immediate knowledge of the situation. All executives spoke anonymously to Bloomberg, too scared to retaliate for public comment.
So far, these people do not see no chance for the Russian president to change course and no prospect of any dispute in interior. Increasingly relying on a narrow circle of hardline advisers, Putin has rejected attempts by other officials to warn him of the ambitious economic and political costs, they said.
