Threat of using tactical nuclear weapons by Putin is real, - Biden

US President Joe Biden has said that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s threats to use tactical nuclear weapons are real.

This was reported by Reuters, Censor.NET informs.

"When I was here about two years ago and said I was worried about the Colorado River drying up, everyone looked at me like I was crazy. They looked at me like they did when I said I was worried about Putin using tactical nuclear weapons. It's real," Biden told a group of donors in California on Monday.

As a reminder, on 17 June, Biden called Kremlin President Putin's statements about the deployment of the first tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus "irresponsible".
