"Some News Updates on Ukraine/Russia/NATO War:  June 17, 2024"


 
Hello John and Doves,
 
The Western rhetoric continues to escalate in the NATO vs Russia war.
 
News tidbits for June 17, 2024:
 
The Polish President "called for Russia to be broken up into separate entities through 'decolonization.'.  His statements echo NATO's deeper goal, the dismemberment of Russia into several small states." The Polish Foreign Minister said that "if Russia uses nuclear weapons during the Ukrainian conflict, the United States will strike Russian positions."
 
He also said that Rostov-on-Don should be a "priority target as it is a key political and military center." 
 
Some NATO members believe that they are 'next' on Russia's invasion list:  "Either we continue the war until the end in the hope that Russia loses, risking even a nuclear 3rd World War, or we accept Russia's terms and we are the next target."  Thus, the "West will never agree to Putin's proposal for Ukraine."

Jens Stoltenberg, Secretary General of  NATO, isn't holding back with his words....he said that the Ukrainian F-16s will be flown by NATO pilots; and it will be a NATO Air Force in Ukraine.  The F-16s will be stationed outside of Ukraine in Poland and Romania.
 
"We are very close to seeing the first dogfights and shootdowns between the two Air Forces, NATO and Russia.
 
Putin has said they will shoot down F-16s or bomb them on the tarmacs.  Because Biden said all F-16s used in this war will have a nuclear weapons platform. Russia won't know which ones carry nuclear warheads and which don't - so he'll blast them all.
 
Also, Stoltenberg said NATO has "plans to place additional nuclear weapons on high alert and enhance the transparency of its nuclear arsenal to counter potential threats from Russia and China."  He also said NATO could remove missiles from storage and put them on standby.

I guess announcing all of NATO's plans and which countries have what and are doing what is part of their new "transparency".
 
Looks like NATO has plans to take on Russia and China.
 
Neither side is giving in or backing down.  So this will continue to escalate.  The world is on a nuclear knife edge...one slip up, on too many red lines crossed....
 
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
 
Maranatha!
