Alexander Khodakovsky, the commander of Russia's Donetsk militia, pointed to nuclear weapons as one way Russia could win the war during an appearance on state TV..."We don't have the ability—we're a country which is now fighting the entire Western world, and we don't have the resources to defeat the NATO bloc with conventional means," he said. "But we have nuclear weapons for that. We built them specially for such situations. That is why there is only one option."

As the anti-nukesters said in the 80s....one nuke can ruin your whole day.

I mean, he’s probably not wrong. Though there are very likely no winners if nukes fly.

Poor moron can’t think it through, how many nukes to fight the world and the world only needs two. One to Moscow and one to St Petersburg

Does the “militia” have nukes?

More fear mongering from you.

Soviets don’t care. Never have. Look what they do and have done to their own people.

This general...as well as Vlad himself....recall The Big Guy's boss's promise of flexibility a few years back. IOW,Vlad knows that he owns The Big Guy and his puppet masters at Rat Party Headquarters.

*None* of this would have happened under DJT!!!

You’re correct and Ukraine isn’t worth blowing up the world over.

Besides sounding like an idiot, he seems to be admitting defeat.

But I’m sure some here would like the western world to fold up our tent and succumb to nuclear blackmail.

The US shouldn’t be involved at all. Let the feckless EU handle this problem if they really want to. Otherwise let Ukraine and Russia fight it out. Corrupt Ukraine isn’t worth a single life outside of that shitty country.

Brussels would be my first choice, followed by Berlin and Warsaw.

Let France, UK and the United States decide if they want some also.
