Unrest in Russia and nuclear annihilation
Here we go again! This is the most appropriate remark to the coup attempt on Russia President Vladimir Putin by Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner mercenary army. In any unrest in Russia, the danger is that it may result in a nuclear civil war. This was a concern among Western diplomats in 1989 when the Berlin Wall fell. It was evident then that the entire Eastern Socialist bloc will follow, with the only question being: Will it be a peaceful split or a civil war with nuclear weapons? This dire development was averted when then Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev ordered the Red Army to stay in their barracks.
