Russian President Vladimir Putin has once again hinted at the use of nuclear weapons on Thursday. According to Forbes report, Russia has the largest number of nuclear weapons in the world.
President Vladimir Putin has said that the delayed Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile will be deployed this year, on the completion of one year of the Russia-Ukraine war. This is the same RS-28 Sarmat liquid-fueled missile that was dubbed Shaitan-2 by Western analysts.
According to Forbes report, Russia has 5,977 nuclear weapons. The United States has 5,428. China (350), France (290), United Kingdom (225), Pakistan (165), India (160), Israel (90) and North Korea have 20.
The US provided roughly US$47 billion in military aid to Ukraine between January 24, 2022 and January 15, 2023. This is more than any other country. Recently, Biden announced $500 million when he visited Kiev for the first time.
Russia has more total nuclear weapons than the United States, but the Federation of American Scientists estimates that they have no preparations for deployment or use. Citing NATO and US aggression, Putin has repeatedly threatened nuclear annihilation.
