Biden threatens Russia with international repercussions if nuclear arms used in Ukraine

US President Joe Biden has warned that Russia would face international consequences if it uses chemical or tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine in an interview with CBS made public on Friday.

The American leader was asked as to what he would say to Russian President Vladimir Putin "if he is considering using chemical or tactical nuclear weapons." "Don't. You will change the face of war unlike anything since World War II," Biden replied.

When asked about the US’ reaction in this case, the US president stated: "You think I would tell you if I knew exactly what it would be? Of course, I'm not gonna tell you. It'll be consequential. They'll become more of a pariah in the world than they ever have been. And depending on the extent of what they do will determine what response would occur."
