(ReclaimingAmerica.net) – In a new thinly-veiled threat against the West amid his war on Ukraine, Russia’s leader Vladimir Putin has used a new speech to warn of the possible breakout of World War III.
As Putin shifts focus to Russia’s advancement in military technology, the unveiling of the Oreshnik missile aims to direct attention away from the criticism of Russia’s foreign policy, especially concerning Ukraine.
Putin sought to spotlight Russia’s development of the Oreshnik hypersonic missile, shifting focus from the escalating Ukraine conflict.
This technological advancement, he claims, showcases Russia’s defense prowess, thus reinforcing its position as a formidable force.
Putin emphasized that the missile travels at speeds of Mach 10, making it nearly impossible for existing Western air defense systems to intercept.
The missile, said to be deployed in a strike on Dnipro, Ukraine, has raised alarms about potential shifts in military balance.
Military experts argue that its capabilities could deeply alter war dynamics, posing a new threat.
However, NATO counters this by asserting that the missile won’t change the conflict’s course, suggesting confidence in their defense strategies.
“No other nations have weapons like ours,” Putin said, cited by The BBC.
Meanwhile, a looming White House summit could see Ukraine being granted powers to strike Russian military bases with advanced Western weaponry.
Russian President Vladimir Putin warns that such a move would be viewed as direct NATO involvement in the conflict, a significant statement that could intensify the standoff between the West and Moscow.
Military dynamics have also shifted with Iran supplying Russia with a large missile shipment, boosting Russia’s firepower.
Vladimir Putin stands firm, accusing the West of pushing Russia to its limits, and warning of the potential for World War Three if current trajectories continue.
“The escalator here is Putin. Putin has escalated with the shipment of missiles from Iran,” stated British Foreign Secretary David Lammy, cited by Politico.
While Russia boasts about its stockpile of new intermediate-range ballistic missiles, Ukraine calls for an upgraded missile defense system to protect against these advancements.
As global leaders watch closely, the question remains if a tech duel or diplomatic resolution will determine the course of this precarious situation.
