American political scientist Daniel Depetris said that US and NATO support in the Ukrainian offensive in Crimea could lead to a nuclear war.
This is how he reacted to the statement of US President Joe Biden that the United States will provide military assistance to Ukraine for as long as it is needed.
Depetris noted that such an offensive could lead to an escalation of the conflict and an exchange of nuclear strikes between Russia and the United States, as well as a large-scale war that could draw the US and NATO into direct military confrontation with Russia.
The political scientist stressed that Crimea does not affect the interests of the United States, so it is unreasonable to risk your security for it.
Earlier, US Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland said that Russian military bases in Crimea are legitimate targets for Ukrainian attacks, and the US will support Ukraine if it attacks the peninsula.
