LLAW’s NUCLEAR ISSUES & COMMENTS, Thursday, (06/13/2024)
Suddenly, potential nuclear war has turned urgently serious. The news is everywhere, full of questions with no answers, so I have returned to my old standby for accurate information, Sky News . . . This Post is set up so you can pick and choose their ‘Key Points’ links of your choice if you want to examine specific issues more thoroughly; or you can read the entire story if you have the time and the curiosity. I will leave opinions, facts and the discussion of issues and circumstances to “Sky News” reporting for now. (Let me just add this: I hope Russia’s movement of ships to Cuba is not a more serious move than the old Cuban Missile crisis in October of 1962) . . . ~llaw

Russia reassures the West as its warships arrive in Cuba – while its troops elsewhere practise the electronic launch of missiles in tactical nuclear drills. Meanwhile, world leaders gather in Italy today for a G7 meeting – with the US and Ukraine signing a 10-year security deal.
