ALBAWABA - Joe Biden made headlines after claims that the US president's officials are reportedly considering arming the Ukrainian army with nuclear weapons amid the ongoing conflict with Russia, triggering panic across platforms like Musk's X (formerly known as Twitter). 

According to The New York Times, Joe Biden claimed that the US was very close to a nuclear exchange with Ukraine in reference to the Cuban missile crisis during the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union, causing quite a stir in the room. Despite showing interest in the matter, Biden is not carrying on with the decision.

This comes after Joe Biden green-lit a launch of long-range missiles toward Russia but later demanded halting such attacks using American weaponry in fear of a World War III erupting. The decision to use Army Tactical Missile Systems resulted in a change in US policy, according to The New York Times.

In response to the attack, Russia revealed a new nuclear notion claiming that it would use nuclear weapons if its survival was threatened by Ukraine. 

In response to the nuclear doctrine launched by Putin and hinted at two months ago, Biden condemned it but didn't show concern.
