I think World War Three is more realistic, knowing us, knowing our leader. \u2026 The most incredible outcome, that all this will end with a nuclear strike, seems more probable to me than the other course of events,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-10762143\/Ukraine-war-Russian-state-TV-says-nuclear-strike-probable-losing.html\">The Daily Mail<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing a panel on the show, she continued, \u201cThis is to my horror on one hand, but on the other hand, it is what it is. We will go to heaven, while they will simply croak\u2026 We\u2019re all going to die someday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Simonyan\u2019s rhetoric came the day after foreign minister Sergei Lavrov was <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/russian-foreign-minister-warns-of-real-and-considerable-possibility-for-nuclear-world-war\/\">asked<\/a> on Russian state TV whether he could compare the tension between Russia and the West to the Cuban missile crisis during the Cold War. Lavrov answered, \u201cThe risk is serious, real. It should not be underestimated. Under no circumstances should a third world war be allowed to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere can be no winners in a nuclear war,\u201d he continued, then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/news\/18375080\/nuclear-world-war-real-danger-britain-nato-target\/\">mentioned<\/a>\u00a0NATO weapons shipments to Ukraine as he added, \u201cNATO, in essence, is engaged in a war with Russia through a proxy and is arming that proxy. War means war.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba responded by writing on Twitter, \u201cRussia loses last hope to scare the world off supporting Ukraine. Thus the talk of a \u2018real\u2019 danger of WWIII. This only means Moscow senses defeat in Ukraine. Therefore, the world must double down on supporting Ukraine so that we prevail and safeguard European and global security.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Putin himself told legislators in St. Petersburg, \u201cIf someone intends to interfere in what is going on from the outside they must know that constitutes an unacceptable strategic threat to Russia. \u2026 They must know that our response to counter strikes will be lightning fast. Fast. We have all the weapons we need for this. No one else can brag about these weapons, and we won\u2019t brag about them. But we will use them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u201cRussia conducted its first test of the Sarmat, an intercontinental ballistic missile that carries a heavy nuclear payload, on April 20. Vladimir Putin and his advisers have issued nuclear warnings throughout the war in Ukraine, threatening the U.S. and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization with attack if they escalate their involvement,\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/the-us-show-it-can-win-a-nuclear-war-russia-putin-ukraine-nato-sarmat-missile-testing-warning-11651067733?mod=opinion_lead_pos6\">The Wall Street Journal<\/a> noted on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest growing conservative media companies for breaking news, investigative reporting, sports, podcasts, in-depth analysis, books, and entertainment for a reason: because we believe in what we do.
