Zelensky explained why Putin has not yet used nuclear weapons

Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin is restrained from launching a nuclear strike against Ukraine by fear of losing money, power and public support. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this during a dialogue with lyceum students, cadets and teachers of the Bohdan Khmelnytskyy National Academy of the State Security Service of Ukraine.

At the same time, Zelenskyy noted that it was impossible to be completely sure that he would not do this.

As for Russia's claims of a nuclear catastrophe or nuclear strikes. They are sick in the head people, this is a fact. So to say completely that they are or are not capable of doing this is impossible. Because with a sick person it is difficult to say to the end," Zelensky noted.

However, he noted that even "sick people" are able to understand the consequences of a nuclear catastrophe and they are actually very afraid to die in a devastating confrontation.

All these things that I listed: life, chair, society and the red line" that nuclear weapons cross with the whole world is a fact. Even those countries that are balancing between us and Russia and cannot make up their minds, even those countries will turn away from Russia after a nuclear strike of any scale on any territory," the president said.

Zelensky emphasised that people who are afraid of losing material wealth will never use nuclear weapons.

Otherwise, they will be liquidated. It doesn't matter how. They will all be liquidated, in my opinion," the head of state added.
