"Lifting Escalation": The US is afraid of the use of chemical weapons in Ukraine - Politico

American officials believe that Russia can decide on a chemical blow to Ukraine if it feels that it is a step from complete collapse. US Presidential Administration Joe Baiden said that Russian President Vladimir Putin can use chemical weapons in Ukraine before deciding on a nuclear blow. About it writes Politico. Six officials who talked to journalists on the conditions of anonymity said they were afraid of the administration's desire to ensure the allies' readiness for such an event.

The White House is preparing to mobilize resources and investment in the production of new detection systems. The sources were informed to journalists that yet there were no information that would say that such an attack was inevitable. They are convinced that in the winter the fighting will stag, and none of the parties will be able to seize a large territory.

However, if the combat losses of the Russian Federation continue, or the Kremlin understands that it is close to complete collapse, Moscow may resort to the use of chemical weapons. It is also about the substance "newcomer". One source told reporters that the Russian Federation would use chemicals that are easy to hide. This will complicate the search for evidence that Moscow is responsible for a chemical attack. Russia can use agents on a pharmaceutical basis, known in space as PBA.

According to officials and experts, some chemicals can be used to attack with mass victims, although it is known that Moscow has used the neuro-paralytic substance "newcomer" at the same time against one or two people. For example, some chemicals can be turned into an aerosol or used in ammunition to harm a large group of people. The US National Security Council, according to journalists, gave up comments.

According to experts who spoke from Politico, the substances used to develop chemical weapons are easily hidden and can be introduced in the legal industries. Gregory Koblenz, Director of the Biodom Program at George Mason, is given this opinion. "Our traditional intelligence methods in which we are really good, such as satellite images and reconnaissance, are not really so useful to tell you what is happening inside one of these basic biological objects," Koblene said.

"This really needs human intelligence that is very difficult to get. " According to a representative of the US Defense Ministry, the Russian Federation does not have military power to defeat Ukraine in the near future. "It can happen, but then we will climb the escalation stairs," he said of a probable chemical blow from the Russian Federation. Chemical weapons are a type of weapon of mass destruction. It is based on toxic and poisonous substances.

Its use has been prohibited several times by various international agreements. Russia was one of the countries that ratified the UN Convention on the ban on chemical weapons. Earlier, Focus wrote that PACE President had threatened the Kremlin because of rocket strokes in Ukraine. The shadows of Coke warned Vladimir Putin and his allies that Russia's military crimes would not remain unpunished. We will also remind that Kaczynski suggested that Germany send Patriot to Ukraine, not to Poland.
