Donald Trump recently urged his successor Joe Biden to “stop this senseless war and not escalate it by supplying tanks to Ukraine.” According to him, the threat of a nuclear conflict exists if the situation in Ukraine escalates further, pointing out that “first come the tanks, then come the nuclear weapons”.
His remarks come just following Washington’s decision to send more than thirty “Abrams M1” tanks to Ukraine.
According to Russia, the recently announced deliveries of American and German weapons to Ukraine are further proof that NATO countries are directly involved in the fight, with Moscow accusing the West of just wanting to fuel the war.
The Russian ambassador in Washington, Anatoly Antonov, spoke of “shameful provocation” by evoking the shipments of tanks to Ukraine. “It is clear that the United States wants to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia,” he added.
For her part, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock told a Council of Europe meeting in Strasbourg this week that “the countries of Europe are at war with Russia, not with each other”, provoking the ire of Moscow.
