Europe is currently preparing for nuclear war due to the Russian-Ukrainian war, and the European Commission is pressing the European Union (EU) to speed up procurement of iodine tablets, protective equipment, and medical supplies to respond to a potential nuclear disaster.

The Spanish newspaper, "La Bangordia", said in a report, that nuclear war is still far away, but the Russian army's recent occupation of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant has awakened ancient ghosts in Europe.

The Spanish newspaper added that each day of that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine brings further fears of possibilities that Russia may use weapons nuclear.

La Bangordia's", report said that Europe sees the importance of preparing with all its tools, and to do so the European Commission is trying to encourage EU members to stockpile iodine tablets, radiation protection jackets, and other medicines to help combat the devastating effects of any radiation leak on the human body.
