The U.S. and NATO won’t send their forces to Ukraine because they have no chance of victory in a conventional war,” wrote diplomat and journalist Miroslav Lazanski in 2019.
“Namely, in a situation where NATO or U.S. troops in Ukraine were facing defeat by the Russian army, Brussels and Washington would have to decide either to admit defeat with all political and military consequences, or to resort to the use of cruise missiles with tactical nuclear weapons. In such a situation, when ‘Tomahawk’ missiles can hit targets in Russia within five to six minutes, the Kremlin has very little time to decide on a nuclear response, order it, and initiate it.
If it doesn’t decide within three minutes, it won’t be able to carry it out, as American cruise missiles would have already hit their targets. In other words, the dangerous threshold of transitioning from the use of tactical to strategic nuclear weapons exists. The risk of escalation is terrifying, and both sides could interpret the use of tactical nuclear weapons as a prelude to the use of strategic nuclear weapons.
And then only God can help the planet. Between 500 million and 1.5 billion people would die, Russia would have between 20 and 45 percent of casualties, Europe and the U.S. between 60 and 90 percent dead, because Russia has a better civil defense system.
As for ‘non-contaminated states’ in Europe, there would be between 20 and 50 percent dead, between 30 and 60 percent in Japan, and between 20 and 70 percent in China. These are the data of Professor Lowell Wood from the National Laboratory in Livermore, USA, published as early as 1982. As nuclear weapon technology has since advanced, the number of casualties would be much higher,” warned Lazanski in “Sputnik.”
What started in Europe in 1999 with the bombing of Yugoslavia is now continuing with the absorption of Balkan states into NATO. And the tragedy in Ukraine, the tragedy of civil war, as Lazanski wrote.
Serbia’s ambassador to Russia, journalist, and military analyst Miroslav Lazanski passed away on August 4, 2021, due to the consequences of a heart attack at the age of 71.”
