Speaking at the St. Petersburg Economic Forum, Russian President Vladimir Putin openly voiced his growing concern about the state of global affairs, warning of the increasing risk of a wider international conflict.
> "I'm seriously concerned. Thereโs an escalating potential for a large-scale conflict โ and it's unfolding right before us."
Putin highlighted multiple flashpoints:
๐บ The war in Ukraine,
๐บ Tensions in the Middle East,
๐บ And the delicate situation around Iranโs nuclear facilities.
He stressed that Russia continues to honor its agreements with Iran, including support for its right to develop peaceful nuclear energy. However, he ruled out providing military support to Tehran in its conflict with Israel.
> โWeโve always fulfilled our commitments. But what else can we do? Launch a military operation? Weโre already engaged in our own.โ
โ ๏ธ On Ukraine, Putin warned against any use of a โdirty bombโ โ a weapon that spreads radioactive material without a nuclear blast. He cautioned that such a move would trigger an extreme response, in line with Russiaโs nuclear doctrine.
> โThe consequences would be catastrophic โ not just for the regime in Kyiv, but for Ukraine itself.โ
