Over the course of more than 1,000 days of war, Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued repeated warnings to Ukraine's Western allies regarding potential dire consequences, including nuclear threats, if they provide Ukraine with the necessary weapons to defend itself.
Recent developments have seen escalating tensions, with the Biden administration granting Kyiv permission to use longer-range American weapons against Russian targets. In response, Putin updated Russia's nuclear doctrine and launched a nuclear-capable ballistic missile towards Ukraine, signaling a clear threat to Ukraine's supporters.
