World War III Underway? Putin Drops Big Bombshell Warning, Sends Chilling Message to U.S, NATO

In a bold and alarming statement, Russian President Vladimir Putin has raised global concerns about escalating tensions, warning against the potential onset of World War III. In a recent interview, Putin addressed the growing involvement of the U.S. and NATO in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which he described as intensifying the risks of global war. Dismissing claims that the war has already escalated into World War III, Putin stressed the importance of not frightening the public but acknowledged the increasing dangers. He blamed the West for fueling the crisis and warned that Russia would always respond to any challenges. At the same time, Putin signaled a potential openness to rebuilding ties with the U.S. and NATO, but only on terms that do not compromise Russia’s security and interests. This chilling message serves as a stark reminder of the fragile balance in international relations as the world watches the ongoing geo-political standoff. #WorldWarIII #PutinWarning #GlobalTensions #RussiaUkraineConflict #USNATO #PutinMessage #GeopoliticalCrisis #MilitaryEscalation #NATOChallenges #RussiaResponse #UkraineWar #WorldPeace #InternationalRelations #PutinSpeech #SecurityRisks Also Read NATO Chief Mark Rutte Warns of Putin's Intent for Long-Term Confrontation with Europe :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/nato-chief-warns-putin-long-term-confrontation-europe-011-4014089.html?ref=DMDesc Keir Starmer Declares No Intent to Speak with Putin, Emphasises Commitment to Ukraine at G20 Summit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/keir-starmer-no-plans-to-talk-with-putin-supports-ukraine-011-3990289.html?ref=DMDesc Germany's Scholz Engages in First Call with Putin on Ukraine Negotiations in Nearly Two Years :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/germany-scholz-discusses-ukraine-with-putin-call-011-3988751.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.346~HT.334~

Zelenskyy Binned Christmas Ceasefire: Putin's Friend Orban Blasts Ukraine For Blood Filled Christmas

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has launched a scathing critique of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for rejecting a proposed Christmas ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. Labeling Zelenskyy’s decision as a path to a "blood-filled Christmas," Orban accused Ukraine of turning down a genuine effort for peace. The controversy erupted after Orban revealed on X (formerly Twitter) that Hungary, during its EU presidency, proposed a ceasefire and a large-scale prisoner exchange, only to be met with outright rejection by Kyiv. Zelenskyy, in response, mocked Orban, accusing him of leveraging the peace initiative to bolster his personal image and dismissed the proposal as disingenuous. #Zelensky #Orban #ChristmasCeasefire #BloodFilledChristmas #UkraineRussiaWar #PeaceTalks #PutinAlly #HungaryUkraine #DiplomaticClash #CeasefireRejected #GeopoliticalTensions #UkraineConflict #EUUnity #NATOAllies #GlobalPeace Also Read Vladimir Putin's Alleged 'Secret' Daughter Lives Under False Identity In Paris: Report :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/vladimir-putins-alleged-secret-daughter-lives-under-false-identity-in-paris-report-4001433.html?ref=DMDesc Amid The Russia-Ukraine War, What Putin's 'Upcoming' India Visit Means :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/amid-the-russia-ukraine-war-what-putins-upcoming-india-visit-means-3993955.html?ref=DMDesc Vladimir Putin's India Visit: Dates To Be Announced Soon, Confirms Kremlin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/vladimir-putins-india-visit-dates-to-be-announced-soon-confirms-kremlin-3991691.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.194~GR.124~

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban initiated a crucial phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss the ongoing Ukraine war. This diplomatic exchange comes just days after Orban's meeting with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, who has expressed his intention to broker a peace deal swiftly once in office. Orban, known for his close ties with both Trump and Putin, is seeking to navigate Europe through what he calls the "most dangerous days" of the conflict. Despite facing internal and EU opposition, Orban has remained a staunch advocate for peace talks and has refrained from sending military aid to Ukraine.

‘They’ll Regret This’: Putin Roars After 9/11-Style Attack in Kazan Hits Civilians, Warns Ukraine

Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stern warning to Ukraine following a dramatic 9/11-style drone attack on Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan. The December 21 assault, involving eight drones, targeted residential buildings and an industrial facility, causing significant damage but no casualties. In response, Putin vowed harsh retaliation, promising that those responsible "will face many times greater destruction in their own country" and "will regret" their actions. He assured Tatarstan's leader, Rustam Minnikhanov, that all damages would be swiftly repaired.

The tank was seen engulfed in flames as it was struck multiple times. In addition to the Leopard tank, two more tanks, an M113 APC, and two pickup trucks were eliminated. Russian forces also neutralized five Soviet-made D30 howitzers and four U.S.-made M101 and M119 howitzers. This destruction occurred during a failed Ukrainian counter-attack, leading to significant losses for Kyiv in an ongoing battle for control in the region. #Putin #KamikazeDrones #LeopardTank #UkraineMilitary #RussianForces #Kharkiv #MilitaryStrike #UkraineLosses #RussianVictory #CounterAttackFail #APCsDestroyed #HowitzersHit #UkrainianDefense #RussianMilitary #TacticalStrike Also Read 9/11 Like Attack Takes Place In Russia; All Flights At Kazan Airport Suspended :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/9-11-like-attack-takes-place-in-russia-all-flights-at-kazan-airport-suspended-011-4022565.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Launches Free Cancer Vaccine: Free Distribution To Begin In 2025 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-launches-free-cancer-vaccine-free-distribution-to-begin-in-2025-4019757.html?ref=DMDesc Uzbekistan National Arrested For Assassination Of Russian Chemical Weapons Chief Igor Kirillov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/uzbekistan-national-arrested-for-assassination-of-russian-chemical-weapons-chief-igor-kirillov-4019123.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~HT.336~GR.344~
