US initiates moves to deploy advanced weapons in European nations -

Washington: In view of the statements made by Russia about a nuclear attack, the US has started moves to deploy advanced nuclear weapons in European countries. The ‘B-61 gravity nuclear bombs’ developed by the US will be deployed in European countries in the next two months, the website ‘Politico’ has informed. Besides, the American website said that the US had kept nuclear weapons at bases in six European countries and new nuclear bombs would be launched at all these bases.

A few days ago, NATO Defence Ministers met in Europe. In this meeting, America raised the issue of deploying new advanced nuclear bombs. Sources said the new deployment was justified by Russia’s increased likelihood of a nuclear attack. It has also come to light that some countries in the meeting have insisted that NATO should be prepared without fear of nuclear threats from Russia in any situation.

Apart from the United States, the United Kingdom and France also have nuclear weapons in the NATO alliance. However, it is said that these nuclear weapons are not as advanced as the ‘B-61 Gravity Nuclear Bombs’ owned by the United States. Therefore, the website said in its report that the United States has decided to deploy new nuclear weapons on nuclear bases in Europe in the next two months.

Moreover, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his nuclear forces to be on alert after the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. A few days ago, Putin also warned that his threat regarding nuclear attacks was not empty. Former Russian officials and analysts have also made statements that Russian nuclear weapons have the potential to devastate Europe. This has created an atmosphere of fear in western countries.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed that the intensity of drone attacks by Russia has increased. Zelensky claimed that Russia had conducted 30 drone strikes in the last two days.
