WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden expressed skepticism of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s comment in a speech on Thursday that he has no intention of using a nuclear weapon in Ukraine.
“If he has no intention, why does he keep talking about it? Why is he talking about the ability to use a tactical nuclear weapon?” Biden said in an interview with NewsNation.
“He’s been very dangerous in how he’s approached this,” Biden said.
