that Russian leader Vladimir Putin \u201cinadvertently indicated on June 5 that Russian forces may be suffering roughly 20,000 monthly casualties in Ukraine, which, if accurate, would be roughly equal to or just below the number of new personnel that Russia reportedly generates per month.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Institute also noted that even as U.S. and Russian hardware collides in Ukraine, Putin is sending a message that the nuclear sphere remains a possibility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRussian naval vessels will make a port call in Cuba on June 12\u201317, likely as part of a larger effort to invoke the historical memory of the Cuban Missile Crisis as part of Russia\u2019s reflexive control campaign to encourage US self-deterrence,\u201d it reported, noting that Putin also said Russia \u201cwill

ships, the frigate Admiral Gorshkov, can carry Zircon hypersonic missiles, which Russia says could carry a nuclear warhead.<\/p>\n<p>The Institute for the Study of War said Putin is following a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/putin-issues-nuclear-warning-west-draws-red-line-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">familiar pattern<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPutin has repeatedly used nuclear saber-rattling to push the West to self-deter during times when the West has faced key moments on critical policy decisions in how to best support Ukraine,\u201d it wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Kremlin likely hopes that the clear allusion to the Cuban Missile Crisis and the inclusion of a reportedly nuclear weapons\u2013capable ship will force the West to engage in self-deterrence. The Kremlin likely coordinated the announcement of the Russian navy\u2019s port calls in Cuba with Putin\u2019s threats to provide long-range strike capabilities to unspecified actors for strikes against the West, as both activities can instill fear in the West,\u201d it wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Pranay Vaddi, the top National Security Council arms control official, said unless America\u2019s enemies engage in arms talks, it may be time to increase <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/nuclear-war-fears-soar-strategic-early-warning-radar-obliterated-strike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">America\u2019s nuclear arsenal<\/a>, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/biden-aide-raises-possible-increased-deployments-us-strategic-nuclear-weapons-2024-06-07\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reuters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbsent a change in adversary arsenals, we may reach a point in the coming years where an increase from current deployed numbers is required.
