Lie: Le Figaro is already discussing the use of French nuclear weapons against russia in Ukraine. On June 13, this decision of President Macron was supported on the X social network by MP of the pro-presidential party "Renaissance" Munir Belamiti. This is what pro-russian Telegram channels write.

Truth: Neither on June 13 nor on other dates did Mounir Belhamiti post such posts on the X social network (https://x.com/MounirBelhamiti). The video fake was assembled from fragments of various videos and created with the help of graphic editors. Thus, the kremlin continues to incite the issue of "war escalation" in order to intimidate the population of Europe and weaken military aid to Ukrainians. With the same goal, the russians once again conducted nuclear exercises together with Belarus.
russian dictator putin and his propagandists regularly make public statements about the possibility of Russia using nuclear weapons.

▶️ This trick is used by the russian Federation as a last argument that can prevent defeat in the war. Accordingly, if such statements arise, the Kremlin understands that defeat and responsibility for crimes are real.

▶️ The hypothetical use of nuclear weapons by the russian Federation will not improve its military and political situation, but on the contrary will lead to an instant defeat.

▶️ The kremlin is bluffing, trying to raise the stakes in order to slow down aid to Ukraine from its partners. russia has regularly resorted to nuclear blackmail since 2014.

▶️ At the same time, the kremlin's rhetoric "normalizes" nuclear blackmail and destroys the taboo on nuclear aggression. This is an extremely irresponsible and dangerous game that can have tragic consequences for humanity.

▶️ The free world has finally moved to stronger reactions to putin's threats. The USA and NATO have demonstrated that they have symmetrical deterrent powers against a nuclear aggressor.
