Does Biden want nuclear war? Whether Russian President Vladimir Putin really believes it or merely wants the Russian people to believe it, he has repeatedly laid the blame for Russia's invasion of Ukraine on the West. Putin suggests that the U.S. and other Western countries have not only fomented anti-Russian sentiment in Ukraine but also made themselves part of the battle by providing Ukraine with weapons and aid. And it's this last bit that seems to gall Putin the most—and most provoke his threats of nuclear war.
Despite all this, the U.S. won't stop escalating its support for the Ukrainian military. The latest: a new $625 million package of weapons, including rocket launchers. The U.S. will deliver four more High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS), along with 16 Howitzers, armored vehicles, and hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition.
