President Joe Biden warned Russia’s leadership that they should not use nuclear weapons in Ukraine and said Moscow would face unspecified consequences.
“Don’t. Don’t. Don’t,” Biden told CBS’s “60 Minutes” in an excerpt of a rare one-on-one interview Sunday. He issued that response to a question fielded by CBS reporter Scott Pelley about what he would say to Putin if he is considering using nukes during the months-long conflict.
“You will change the face of war unlike anything since World War II,” Biden said.
When asked about what the United States might do in response, Biden declined to elaborate.
“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,” the 46th president said. “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.
