Strategic Expert Warns of Nuclear War between Russia, US 

Russian Strategic Expert Gleb Ivanov warns in an article published in the magazine "Ergumente e-Facti" that a localized military conflict between the United States, on the one hand, and Russia or China, on the other hand, could turn into a devastating nuclear war.

The article said that the United States should be prepared for a nuclear war with China or Russia and find new ways to deter the two countries from using modern strategic weapons.

On the other hand, the head of the US Strategic Command, Admiral Charles Richard, wrote in an article for the Journal of the Naval Military Institute.

He revealed that there is a real possibility that a regional crisis with Russia or China could quickly escalate into a nuclear conflict if they feel that losing a conflict in which conventional weapons are used may threaten the system or the state.

The Americans fancied that the end of the Cold War gave rise to a false hope in Washington that "the use of nuclear weapons is now practically impossible. But America must now bear in mind that the use of nuclear weapons is a "realistic possibility."

Richard Davies the newly arrived administration to the US government to devote attention to studying the risks of nuclear conflict and developing new concepts of deterrence, as well as strategies for launching a nuclear war, if necessary.

In this regard, the leading researcher at the Far East Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Vasily Kashin, said: “In general, Richard did not say anything new. He unambiguously repeated what international experts, including the Russians, were talking about for a long time.

If a local conflict erupts between Russia and the United States or China and the United States, there will be a very high probability that it will develop into a nuclear conflict, with all its dire consequences for all humanity."
