Recently, tensions between the US-UK and Russia over the Black Sea have increased significantly. However, President Vladimir Putin said that even if the dispute escalates here, there will be no world war because Western countries know that they cannot win over Russia in the global war. Earlier, Moscow claimed that its fighter jets had bombed the British destroyer Defender on 23 June. However, Britain has denied any such incident.
Putin was asked whether this incident could spark the Third World War? To this, Putin said that even if Russia had killed and sank a British warship, it is unlikely because Western powers know they cannot win in a global battle.
Putin said in a lengthy live call-in show on Wednesday that Britain was accompanied by a US jet whose mission was probably to monitor the Russian military’s response to the British destroyer. Putin says Moscow is aware of America’s intentions and has responded accordingly to avoid revealing sensitive data.
