United States President Joe Biden said tonight (Friday) that the Russian President's threats to use nuclear weapons meant that the danger of nuclear war is now the most serious since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962.

"We haven't faced the danger of Armageddon since Kennedy," said Biden, who clarified that the United States is closely monitoring Putin's steps.

According to him, "Poltin is not joking when he talks about the potential use of tactical nuclear weapons or biological or chemical weapons, because his army is functioning significantly poorly."
