Ukrainian President Zelenskyy says Putin's threat of nuclear weapons use a reality

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Vladimir Putin's threat of nuclear weapons use could be a reality. What happened? He wants to scare the whole world. These are the first steps of his nuclear sabotage. I don't think he is bluffing, Zelenskyy said in an interview with CBS Face the Nation on Sunday.

In his rare televised address last week, Putin warned the world that his country would use all the means at its disposal to protect its territory, adding that he has various means of destruction more modern than those of NATO countries. Maybe yesterday it was bluff, but now it could be a reality, according to Zelenskyy. They started threatening us with nuclear weapons. Will the world ever depend on one country or one person? The world has to make a decision. We made a decision. He said that we will not depend on one person who is not a citizen of our country.

The U.S. reiterated its warning on Sunday that there will be catastrophic consequences if Moscow uses nuclear weapons in the Ukraine war. Jake Sullivan, U.S. National Security Adviser, told NBC's Meet the Press that if Russia crosses that line, there will be catastrophic consequences for Russia.
