The possibility of World War III is 'more probable' and 'more realistic' than Putin accepting defeat in Ukraine, according to Russian state TV. The shocking claims were made by TV editor Margarita Simonyan.
The remarks, made on Wednesday night, stated that the Russian leader unleashing a nuclear strike is "more probable" than failure. Ms Simonyan said: "Either we lose in Ukraine or the Third World War starts. "I think World War Three is more realistic, knowing us, knowing our leader," the Daily Star reports.
“The most incredible outcome, that all this will end with a nuclear strike, seems more probable to me than the other course of events. This is to my horror on one hand,” she told a panel of experts, “but on the other hand, it is what it is. We will go to heaven, while they will simply croak... We're all going to die someday,” she continued.
