@r2reports: Russia fired a nuclear-capable intercontinental missile across its own territory three days after the CIA director warned Moscow against going nuclear in Ukraine. The Kremlin controls nuclear decisions through Putin and Russia’s military command, while intelligence channels are being used to deliver direct warnings from Washington. There is no sign Russia is preparing to use a nuclear weapon, and Ukraine says it knew this test was coming. The danger is that nuclear signaling between Russia and the West is becoming more explicit as the war continues. #Russia #Ukraine #UkraineWar #Geopolitics #NATO #CIA #NuclearWeapons #Putin #R2Reports
