While this certainly explains the White House\u2019s move to quickly \u201cclarify\u201d what the president meant, it does nothing to alleviate the concerns of many that Biden\u2019s off-the-cuff recklessness could have consequences far beyond short-term political embarrassment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>During an interview on Monday, for example, a Kremlin spokesman told PBS that Russia would only resort to the use of nuclear weapons in response to a <\/span><span>\u201cthreat to the existence\u201d of the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cBut any outcome of the operation [in Ukraine], of course is not a reason for usage of a nuclear weapon,\u201d Dmitri Peskov <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/kremlin-spokesman-russia-would-use-nuclear-weapons-only-case-threat-existence-2022-03-28\/\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span>. \u201cWe have a security concept that very clearly states that only when there is a threat for existence of the state, in our country, we can use and we will actually use nuclear weapons to eliminate the threat for the existence of our country.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It\u2019s hard to argue against the idea that calls for regime change in Russia do not constitute a threat to the existence of Russia \u2026 in Putin\u2019s eyes at least. And while the White House\u2019s instant walking back of Biden\u2019s comments may release the pressure gauge at home, it\u2019s unlikely to have the same effect abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>But if the American people allow themselves to be victims of gaslighting by the President of the United States, perhaps we won\u2019t see the consequences until it\u2019s already too late.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Ian Haworth is a writer for The Daily Wire and contributor to Morning Wire.
