Biden warns of Russian chemical attack
According to US President Biden, Kremlin chief Putin is considering using chemical or biological weapons in Ukraine. In addition, Biden warned of a possible Russian cyber attack on US facilities.
US President Joe Biden has reiterated allegations that Russia is considering using chemical weapons in Ukraine. The Kremlin insists on the fabricated accusation that Ukraine has biological and chemical weapons. Moscow also claims that the United States would station such weapons in Europe – which of course is wrong. This is a clear sign that Russian President Vladimir Putin himself is considering using such weapons.
“Putin has his back to the wall”
Putin has his back against the wall and accuses Ukraine of false allegations. Russia’s bad situation can also be seen from the fact that it used the fast “Kinzhal” missile in the Ukraine war. According to experts, its use in this situation does not bring any advantage over conventional missiles. “They just launched the hypersonic missile because it’s the only thing they can get through with absolute certainty,” Biden said in Washington. It is almost impossible to stop the rocket.
The Ukrainians would cause great damage to Russia’s tanks, helicopters or planes – even with the weapons of Western allies, Biden said. “And now Putin has his back against the wall.”
Cyber Attack Warning
In addition, Biden warned of Russian cyber attacks on US facilities. There are intelligence findings that indicate that Moscow is planning attacks against critical infrastructure in the United States. The government in Washington is prepared for this, but Russia has certainly built up capacities in the field of digital warfare.
At the same time, he called on US company bosses to improve their cyber security. Private companies could also become the target of hacker attacks. It is also a “patriotic duty” to protect against foreign cyber attacks. The government will also support the companies in their defensive measures.
