Putin says he hopes there will be no need to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine

  • Russian President Vladimir Putin stated on Sunday that so far there has been no justification for deploying nuclear weapons in the Ukraine conflict, and he expressed hope that such measures will remain unnecessary while emphasizing Russia’s military capabilities.
  • Putin’s statement followed his signing of a revised nuclear doctrine in November 2024 and amid ongoing skepticism by Ukrainian President Zelenskyy about Russia's ceasefire proposals.
  • The ceasefire was proposed to coincide with Victory Day celebrations in Russia on May 9, which Putin typically uses to showcase military power despite continuous fighting.
  • Zelenskyy condemned the ceasefire as insincere, highlighting Russia’s repeated breaches and continued assaults, while Ukraine anticipates obtaining 1.8 million artillery rounds next year through a NATO-supported, Czech-led military aid program.
  • These developments suggest persistent conflict with little progress toward peace, as both leaders maintain firm positions and international attention focuses on the approaching Victory Day events.
