German Politician Warns: NATO Involvement Could Lead to Nuclear War

A German politician named Sahra Wagenknecht has sounded the alarm about the Russia-Ukraine war. She thinks things could get even worse. She worries that if NATO gets more involved, it might lead to a dangerous standoff. Russia has already mentioned that it could target NATO countries if they keep supporting Ukraine with weapons. This could even involve nuclear weapons, says Wagenknecht. She thinks Russia wouldn't use nuclear weapons unless it feels threatened by Western military influence. Germany's Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, recently promised more military aid to Ukraine, including air defense systems and tanks.This shows how deeply involved NATO countries are in the conflict. Other leaders, like the outgoing Russian ambassador to the U. S. , have also warned about this. They say the U. S. and others are considering giving Ukraine long-range missiles. This could make Russia very angry. The Russian president, Vladimir Putin, has already said he might use nuclear weapons if pushed. Wagenknecht's warning is a reminder of how complicated and risky this war is. It's not just about Ukraine and Russia anymore. It's about big powers and their big weapons.
