WARNING OF WORLD WAR III IF UKRAINE IS ADMITTED TO NATO

RUSSIAN missiles pounded more than 40 Ukrainian cities and towns, officials said this week, after a UN General Assembly resolution called Moscow’s annexation of Ukrainian territory “illegal” and Ukraine’s allies committed to sending more military aid.

Russia repeated its position that the West, by helping Ukraine, indicated that “they are a direct party to the conflict” and warned the admission of Ukraine to Nato could trigger World War III.

“Kyiv is well aware that such a step would mean a guaranteed escalation to a World War III,” deputy secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, Alexander Venediktov, told state TASS news agency on Thursday. | Reuters
