Putin would not hesitate to use nuclear weapons: Serbian president

BELGRADE,Serbia - Russian President Vladimir Putin would not hesitate to use nuclear weapons if his country’s security and military are threatened and if he has no other option, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic warned.

President Joe Biden authorized Ukraine to use US long-range missiles to strike deeper into Russia, reports said.

Earlier Tuesday, Putin signed a decree approving Russia’s updated nuclear doctrine, nearly two months after he announced changes in his address at the Russian Federation Security Council standing conference on nuclear deterrence on Sept. 25.

According to Vucic, the world is one step away from a disaster and the next step could lead to a nuclear conflict.”If the security of Moscow and its forces are threatened...he will not hesitate for a moment,” he stressed.

As the Ukraine conflict surpasses its 1,000-day mark, its complexities deepen, shaped by external crises and escalating military developments, underscoring the dire need for renewed diplomatic efforts to avert further escalation, Vucic said.
