Scott Ritter: Ukraine’s NATO Allies Dragging World Into Nuclear Armageddon
The West has misinterpreted Russia’s openness to dialogue on Ukraine as a sign of weakness and is now pushing the world to the edge of a disastrous all-out nuclear exchange, as stated by former US Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter in an interview with Sputnik International.
“France is now giving Ukraine permission to use the SCALP air-launched cruise missile against targets inside Russia,” said Scott Ritter. “This isn’t Ukraine defending itself, it’s France attacking Russia.”
Ritter explained that the situation could escalate further once NATO-grade missiles are deployed, potentially triggering a nuclear response from Russia. The military expert highlighted Russia’s awareness of NATO’s involvement in providing weapons and targeting data to Ukraine.
“This is no longer about Ukraine defending itself. It’s about NATO attacking Russia,” emphasized Ritter, warning of the catastrophic consequences of a full-scale conflict between NATO and Russia.
Ritter cautioned that the West’s misreading of Russia’s intentions and attempts to pressure Moscow could lead to a global calamity, marking the end of humanity if not handled properly.
