Pentagon Says Russian President Putin Is Likely To Make Nuclear Threats If War Drags On

Daily Mail: US military fears Putin is planning to use nuclear threats and reveals he is working on new nuclear weapons that can BEAT Western defenses so he can 'inflict unacceptable damage on the West' 

* DIA Director Lt. Gen. Scott Berrier revealed the concerns in a report Thursday 

* The report on global threats noted that Putin would be likely to threaten use of nuclear weapons if Ukrainian defense forces continue to push back 

* It's also believed that Putin intends to 'overturn the U.S.-led rules based post-Cold War international order' and reclaim former Soviet territories 

* The report also notes that Russia claims to be developing missiles that are capable of circumventing Western defenses 

* It has already deployed non-nuclear weapons that come equipped with decoy projectiles, in a possible sign of what's to come 

* This is in order to 'ensure that Russia can credibly inflict unacceptable damage on the West' 

* At the St. Patrick's Day luncheon in the Capitol on Thursday, President Biden called Putin a 'murderous dictator' over Ukraine

Vladimir Putin will edge closer to deploying a nuclear attack if Ukraine continues its valiant pushback against the invasion of Russian troops, a top US defense official warned. 

Lieutenant General Scott Berrier, director of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency detailed the grim concerns in a new 67-page summary of global threats on Thursday. 

It raises the specter of a possible nuclear attack on Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital which has so-far resisted Russian advances, and said a desperate Putin posed a threat to the whole world.
