“No one would survive Russia-US war,” says Putin
07 June, Moscow
No country on earth would survive should the world’s most powerful nuclear states, Russia and the United States, unleash their atomic weapons, Russian President Vladimir Putin has told the American film director Oliver Stone in a series of interviews.
Stone’s film is scheduled to be aired on the Showtime cable channel on June 12-15. “In a hot war is the US dominant?” Stone asked the Russian President to which Putin replied, “I don’t think anyone would survive such a conflict,” Putin replied.
Putin then proves he has the pulse on Russia’s military strategy and tactics. As part of the preview, the clip shows Stone and Putin in the situation room where the Russian leader demonstrated that he is on top of developments playing out in the Syrian military theater.”
Pilot says he is going to make another attempt,” Putin tells Stone while showing him a live feed from a military jet on a smart phone.Stone then asks if there’s “any hope of change” in US-Russian relations, which both countries have acknowledged are at the lowest point since the Cold War.
“There is always hope. Until they are ready to bring us to the cemetery and bury us,” Putin replied.
