The United Statees will retaliate with ‘a devastating strike’ if vladimir putin uses nuclear weapons in Ukraine, Retired Lieutenant General Ben Hodges, who commanded the US Army in Europe between 2014 and 2018, was cited as saying by dailymail.co.uk.

Hodges said that the ‘possibility’ of putin ordering a nuclear strike on Ukraine was ‘very unlikely’, but stressed that the use of weapons of mass destruction would be met with a swift and severe reaction.

putin knows the US will have to respond if russia uses a nuclear weapon and that response could be, for example, the destruction of the Black Sea Fleet, Hodges said.
