Putin ally makes chilling threat listing cities ‘Russia will destroy’ amid World War 3 fears

One of Vladimir Putin's allies, Vladimir Solovyov, has spoken about the three cities that could be potential targets as fears continue to grow about WW3.

Back in February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine, and ever since, war between the two countries has continued on, despite other nations attempting to bring peace.

Putin has claimed that he's not looking for war in Europe, explaining earlier this month: "We're not planning to go to war with Europe, I've said that a hundred times.

"But if Europe suddenly wants to fight us and starts, we're ready right now.

"There can be no doubt about that."

“Once again we will have to destroy Berlin, and enter this godforsaken city. Once again we will have to enter Paris. Once again we will have to liberate Vienna. Well, perhaps the Austrians will reconsider," Solovyov said.

“It doesn’t mean that we want this. But one of the principles postulated by our supreme commander-in-chief is when we are forced to act then we act. First, of course, the principle of ‘do no harm’ but then... please don’t blame us."

Solovyov previously suggested that a nuclear strike on the UK is 'inevitable', while historian and Putin supporter Andrey Sidorov spoke about the death of British paratrooper Lance Corporal George Hooley, 28, who was killed in an explosion in Ukraine earlier this month.

Hooley died while observing Ukrainian forces test 'a new defensive capability, away from the front lines'.

Sidorov said: "This incident should be considered a casus belli, when the British Ministry of Defence officially acknowledged the death of its military personnel on active duty on Ukrainian territory."

A casus belli is an act or situation which provokes or justifies war.

Mark Rutte, the Secretary General of NATO, has warned that Russia could attack a country in the alliance within the next five years.

"Russia is already escalating its covert campaign against our societies," he said in a speech in Germany, as per the BBC. "We must be prepared for the scale of war our grandparents or great-grandparents endured."

He added: "Just imagine if Putin got his way; Ukraine under the boot of Russian occupation, his forces pressing against a longer border with NATO, and the significantly increased risk of an armed attack against us."
