A TV propagandist for Russian president Vladimir Putin has warned a ‘nuclear war is coming’ which will see only ‘mutants’ survive.
Vladimir Solovyov’s comments are the latest nuclear threat to be issued against the West by Russian broadcasters as the war with Ukraine continues.
He said during his show on Russia1 the world was facing ‘bloody pages of world history’ with everything ‘moving in that direction’.
He added: ‘I hope we’ll live through this. If everything keeps progressing the way it is, only a couple of mutants in Lake Baikai [in Siberia] will survive.
‘The rest will be destroyed in a massive nuclear strike.
‘Because if NATO decides they can place whatever they want on our borders, they’ll be sending more and more of American weapons to Ukraine, Ukraine will fire and end up hitting one of our nuclear power plants, and here we go.’
