“We’re in a very sensitive situation. Even small things can change matters a great deal and, unfortunately, for the worse. That is the risk of such large-scale warfare. The risk that nuclear weapons could be used is tremendous,” Niinistö said.”The war in Ukraine will continue for a long time, and the wars may take unexpected paths, including the use of nuclear weapons,” S. Niinisto said in an interview with The New York Times. According to the Finnish president, Europeans should not rule out the risk of a wider war. In an interview with the publication, the politician warned European leaders …
US Senator Lindsey Graham emphasizes consequences of Russian nuclear attack on Ukraine and expresses concerns over nuclear weapons in Belarus In a recent statement, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham issued a stern warning to Russia, highlighting the potential consequences of the Russian Federation’s use of a nuclear weapon to halt a counterattack by the Ukrainian armed forces. According to Senator Graham, such an action would escalate into a full-blown war against the North Atlantic Alliance (NATO). During a speech in Congress, Senator Graham emphasized the gravity of a nuclear attack on Ukraine, stressing that it would result in widespread radiation contamination …
In a grave warning, the President of Ukraine has alerted the international community to Russia’s alleged plans to detonate explosive charges at the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant, the largest nuclear facility in Europe. The potential consequences of such an act would result in catastrophic nuclear contamination, endangering not only Ukraine but also nations across the globe. Any deliberate actions that jeopardize the safety and integrity of this facility pose an immediate threat to the lives and well-being of millions of people. The international community must respond to these distressing claims with the utmost seriousness and urgency. The implications of a …
Recent reports show that the Russian 88th Battalion’s alleged use of banned chemical grenades, specifically Ceriomucha, during their attack on the village of Spirne in Ukraine have sparked international concerns. Recent reports have resurfaced concerning the alleged deployment of Ceriomucha, a banned chemical grenade, in the Kremina region, adding to the mounting concerns about Russia’s disregard for international norms and conventions. It is disheartening to hear that such weapons were employed and that Russian media has portrayed this action with pride and excitement, highlighting its perceived impact on their victory in the battle. The use of these prohibited weapons and …
At the end of April, the authoritative The New York Times published a small piece of news that is essentially meaningless to the general reader. The portal reported that US specialists from NEST (Nuclear Emergency Support Team) are currently installing a network of radiation detectors on Ukrainian territory. This network will make it possible to detect both radiation accidents and the use of the so-called ‘dirty’ bomb, and of course real nuclear weapons. Many will even say that this is nothing new and that these are just normal security measures, but the involvement of NEST – an organisation designed to …
“The anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster is a day to remind everyone in the world how fragile our security is. And all the more so when for more than a year now, the Russian-engineered radiation catastrophe at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant can happen any minute. Only full control of Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant can restore full security, not only for our country, but also for the whole of Europe and the whole world. Radiation does not recognise national borders in the same way as the Russian Federation. And only full compliance with the rules can guarantee security,” warned …
At the end of March this year, while delivering his annual address to the Belarusian Parliament, President Alexander Lukashenko suddenly declared: “Any use of nuclear weapons in Belarus is possible within the framework of the law, and the weapons will be controlled by the country’s authorities”. Lukashenko is known for not being a very good diplomat and has repeatedly said in public what other politicians will never say to the general public. So, the world has heard very clearly that Russia is not only moving some of its nuclear weapons to Belarus, but is also likely to give the country’s …
Civil protection experts are almost unanimous in saying that the first few days are the worst in any accident, war, or cataclysm. This is when both the number of casualties is highest, and the authorities usually do not know what to do. Moreover, it is well known that the true scale of the danger is not immediately apparent to the general population. According to experts, civil protection systems in Western countries start working effectively about 2-3 days after an accident or other cataclysm. However, in the event of a sudden military attack, a natural disaster, or a biological hazard, …
After the end of the Cold War, when the likelihood of an apocalyptic war seemed to have disappeared, many countries stopped caring about the state of their security structures. Some shelters have become commercial premises, some have become attractions for diggers, and some have been destroyed. It is true that in countries whose neighbours are not the calmest, such as the Czech Republic, the security forces are not the calmest. In Israel or S. Korea, existing shelters are carefully maintained, and new ones are still being built. Terror sends shockwaves in the West Unfortunately, in today’s world, it is …
It’s impossible to ignore the rising threat of natural disasters and potential nuclear warfare that looms on the horizon. Every passing day brings news that we’re closer to the brink of a global meltdown, which threatens the security of civilians everywhere. What is your first thought in situations like these? Most people immediately ask themselves, “how do I keep my family safe?”. If you prepare ahead of time, you won’t have to think through solutions or contemplate your options–just grab your loved ones and head to your family fallout shelter. In an emergency situation that would warrant sheltering, having a …
