Russia-Ukraine Conflict amid the “Fog” of WMDs
March 29, 2022
Senior Fellow, Manohar Parrikar IDSA, Gp Capt Ajey Lele’s commentary ‘Russia-Ukraine Conflict amid the “Fog” of WMDs’ has been published by the Society for the Study of Peace and Conflict (SSPC) on 29 March 2022.
The way the Ukraine-Russia conflict has progressed during the last month, it appears that any isolated chemical weapons attack killing a few people would not help Russia achieve its military objective. As far as WMD messaging (to the West) is concerned, Russia has already demonstrated its capabilities in hypersonic missiles (with conventional warheads) by launching two such missile attacks on Ukraine, says Gp Capt Lele.
