Russian TV host dismisses European nuclear threat

Lead Russian propagandist Vladimir Solovyov is once again trying to threaten the West. In his program on the state-run channel Rossiya 1, he mocked the declarations of European politicians who proclaim the need for continued support for Ukraine. Solovyov stated that while Europe has "nuclear bombs," it lacks a "nuclear umbrella."

Many of the reports conveyed by Russian media and government representatives are likely not true. Such reports may be part of an information war by the Russian Federation.

Solovyov praised the Kremlin's decision to continue spending large sums on armaments. According to him, the military potential of Europe and Russia is "incomparable."

One of his guests pointed out that in Europe, the United Kingdom and France possess nuclear weapons. "They have nuclear bombs but no nuclear umbrella," replied Solovyov.

He added that, in his opinion, France lacks the capability to deliver its nuclear warheads effectively. "Are they going to launch them with a slingshot? How are they going to deliever them? Well, but of course, it's Macron; he'll 'figure something out,'" he mocked.
